Great refreshing read... Gary truly is worth our support.

A Level 42 clip (too short) displaying nice singles around the kit HERE

The whole thing is a MUST read, here's my highlight:

"Well, I've been disappointed in so much of what I've heard in the realm of this jazz/rock, electric, fusion whatever area for a long time now. There are various movements and elements in particular that spring to mind. One pertains directly to this so-called "shred"/turbo aspect I find myself so commonly aware of within what a lot of people are doing - what people are saying in music of this derivative, and subsequently the knock-on effect which is acting as some kind of blueprint for younger aspiring musicians to start "taking on". It bothers me - for I hear no substance, no voice, hardly anything of any intrinsic musical value - just "switch it on" and switch it off", gratuitous, empty - nothing to remember about it at all. Did somebody forget that we're supposed to be saying something here!? Did somebody forget this is about music!!!!? It is towards this aim!! If not, what is it? I'm hearing a lot of technical accomplishment without any basis. I don't hear anything about these players, as people - their yearning, their bite, their struggle, their reach - their "story"."

Oh and about that clip... No one can deny that only a match grip player can pull those kinds of singles. [img]wink.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]
