Thanks in advance.


Hi new here myself. The context I've heard it used is people who don't like a million notes played at the speed of light. I'm not an anti-soloist, but I think there's something to the "less is more" school. What you DON'T play at the right time is equally important as what you do play. I love SRV, but I once walked out on a concert of his- every solo sounded the same. Lots of people say his brother is a better player (forget his name) cuz he's a "simpler" player. Santana is getting redundant in his old age, but I'll take a 1 note bend from him almost anytime.
