Are you asking me to lie to you? Because this is genuinely how I felt about his playing in that particular video. He's hella skilled, but all of the stuff that he played--especially the solo--just had me waiting for it to end as it felt pointlessly modal. How do you feel about the music? Let's actually discuss music instead of this stupid feud.

Seriously. Naptime methinks dude.

Well, being a guitarist who likes to burn, I'm a bit partial. I LOVE the music. Love the fact that those 3 guys would go out and mostly improvise and feed off of each other. Temporal Analogues of Paradise was completely improvised and it's maybe my favorite fusion album of all time.

I've already commented on Lane's solos, which blend jazz, rock, fusion, neo-classical, blues, west-Indian, and the kitchen sink. But his "made up on the spot" double stops and triads during those first 10 minutes is mind blowing.
