Connors was the best at the time...check out Stanley's album...no one was close...the best.....his tone, feel, phrasing...about time someone wrote a book about Mr Connors.....transcribe his solo's,....the guy was one of the best out there!!! Probably still is!!!
At the time Bill was the hottest player!! I love all THE GUYS..Al, Sco, Johnny Mac etc etc but Connors had that feel...just listen to the STANLEY CLARKE album!! One of my favourite guitar albums of all time...devistating playing!!!
@Nuxunumo Yes, there is a video of Billy Joe playing similar guitar riffs and solos. And also, some of his soloing is like what chick corea is doing, but Billy is a little bit faster and more tasty
@slowuncle As much as I love Al I grew as a Guitar player listening and playing along to Bill Connors, I guess it was the interplay between him and Chick as this video shows.
This is a tune I first heard on one of stanley's albums called Vertu from 1999 (check my channel). I never knew it was RTF! Wow! This is a different and amazing version.

What a shale Bill connors left. Al di Meola is good but without any feelings and he like too much (often like Corea) poor spanish music

In my opinion, the greatest fusion band of all time. Lenny's timekeeping is stellar. Has to be to play off Corea.

@voncoolio The version on vertu plays the same melody, but in a massively more epic way.
