@Krafterr4 I mean losing him...

@MrHeitz17 What do you mean Journey really fucked up?

If you listen carefully during Smith's more recent solos, you can hear him humming to himself and actually playing off of whatever melody comes to mind, on the fly! It's also neat to see how much freer he is with this solo when comparing it to that VHS from the 90's where he played it.

@rired48 Oh yeah, good stuff!

You can tell Steve only cares about being musical. His flashiness is entirely secondary. So brilliant.

The DVD in which i took this from, is very helpful as it shows you Elvin, Blakey and Williams type fills/feels etc. I have been using the para-diddle -diddle (wave-like) in some of my fill ideas lately. Smith's playing is amazingly precise (how often do you seem him screw up?), and is of course very musical.
