He showed you what the riff was to elevation...you tell me.
Sounds like Toto pulled the curtain on the great and powerful Edge.

I think the Edge and Jack White make an interesting comparison because they have guitar styles that are diametric in approach. Jack wants his playing to sound like he had no time to rehearse for the gig, precises timing isn't his main concern and a mis-step only adds to the that idea. While the Edge takes the opposite and timing is importatnt to him, one mistake is repeat over by his echo pedal....
