Listen, he's not trying to play "better" than Alex, he's paying a tribute to the song. That's what a tribute band is. It's a way of showing appreciation for a song that has inspired you and your creativity. That's why they are called "Tribute Bands" and not "One Upper Bands". I think he does a great job, while adding his own creative elements. It's a song he feels can provide him with challenge of increasing his creative elements, not "better" elements.

@SciMasterGeneral Pot meet kettle. There appears to be a fair amount of disillusionment going around. All mentioned are skilled and unique guitarists. Calling one greater is like saying my dad can beat up yours. There's a distinct prejudice towards your own favorite. They all bring different things to the table so maybe we can just agree these guys are good all around and get on with enjoying the music.

everyone's comparing the musicianship. and forgetting the incredible composing that created this masterpiece.

I like how the drummer plays "The Body Electric" drum beat for a spell.

What a fantastic and original take on a classic... I was pleasantly surprised!  Thank you!

They covered this song because...IT'S A GREAT COMPOSITION. Comparing Alex to Steve to Eddie...just stupid. Beethoven, Bach, Mozart.  Enjoy them ALL for what they are. Why be a hater? Grow up.

@toneeleven Well said.Although i cant believe no one covered by-tor and the snow dog?

@druglover200 Yep , this cover is awesome . I love them both. Steve Kicks ass and I wish more people would discover Him. Dregs AND Solo work. Too bad alot of people feel the need to try and put one player above another. Lets all just be glad we have so many different Heroes to choose from and aren't stuck having to listen to only one guy all the time. Rock On Man !

than Ed ,having learned much from His Father and /or piano teachers. It's very simply Apples & Oranges" , just a different style of music and song writing approach. I am a great fan of both guys and am thankful to have been able to discover them both. If you like Eddie, I would recommend listening to a guy named Frank Gambale, i guarantee you will be blown away the more you listen to his chops. God bless Eddie but there are more players out there with awesome chops. Rock On my brother !
