Can we just do another music thread?

I rather enjoy guitar wankery, personally.

Again, this.
This is kinda why I prefer Blues to Jazz. Jazz, to me, is far too mechanical, while Blues has so much more soul in it!

I find it somewhat odd to call jazz mechanical, considering how much emphasis there is on improvisation. I also take issue with the idea that more technical flourishes necessarily make a song less soulful, which seems to be the underlying idea here. Remember that a lot of practice goes into being able to play like that, and every now and again people do develop those skills for reasons other than a desire to show them off.
