i just got that issue the other day. i was pretty happy with it, though i thought Hendrix's star spangled banner should have been much higher. anyways if you read the introduction to the countdown it says that they asked all their readers to send in their top 5 favorite solos, so if you didn't send anything in, you shouldn't complain, and if you did, there's no accounting for the rest of america's taste
To improve technique and of course trying to keep all as clean as possible. I know my own limits and speed limits and so on I never play anything I'm not capable of. That wouldn't make any sense. After three years of playing I tried to play everything as fast as possible and that sounded, I would say, like shit, and I didn't realize that if I'd play bit slower things than I was capable of playing then everything would sound much better.
