Title: So much talent .............
Review: There is no doubt he is a very talented guitarist. It's what he does with that talent that fails to engage me. Everyone describes this album as innovative, and that word usually scares me when applied to music, as it does here.His comment in the notes that "...it is more important to 'feel the pain'..." is at the core of what I don't like about this album. I'm not looking for pain in music. I look for pleasure mostly, but sometimes for anger or sadness or other emotions to help give me insight into my own. But pain? I've had enough of my own, I don't want more. Sometimes it is inescapable, but I'll never knowingly pursue it.I want music to be about resolution and moving on, not about wallowing in misery. But if you want to wallow, you've come to the right place.
