Define finesse, please.

Re: A study of - Goodbye Toulouse guitar solo
Never thought of Hughs guitar work as 'impressive delicacy and skilful', he's no Allan Holdsworth but his guitar solos are very quirky, inventive, memorable, simple and very easy to learn and that's why ive always loved Hugh's guitar playing so much.
Also I think he's very underrated and deserves to be more well known.
I don't see the point in comparing Hugh to Baz or John Ellis, Hugh wrote the songs and solos, end of.

Re: A study of - Goodbye Toulouse guitar solo
Totally agree. They are just copying. Couldn’t give a flying toss if they are technically better they cannot write anything that compares. Nothing compares to Hugh.

how did I get down here, well it's a long story
Re: A study of - Goodbye Toulouse guitar solo
Yeah agree with above comments... I don't think they're meant to be delicate and skilful, but out of the three band members who have played it I think John Ellis displays the most finesse. Not necessarily the best to hear though! But I can't vote for him!

Re: A study of - Goodbye Toulouse guitar solo
Just a comparison of the 4 particluar clips, different ways of playing it, couldn't find a video of Ellis playing it.
Baz and Hugh below par on acoustic , interesting to see these days Baz plays it different to Hugh, Baz chucks in more pitch bends, or is Hugh being lazy

Re: A study of - Goodbye Toulouse guitar solo
I liked the band versions more than the acoustic. I can see/hear that baz is technically good, but I enjoy listening to Hugh play more. I think that Hugh's performance was more expressive.
But I wonder if I'm just biased, and if I heard the music without knowing who was playing I'd think the same?

Hugh gets my vote for fine ass.
I'll even let you drive my motorbike . . .
