Listen to the wind that shakes the heart then tell me that andy James doesn't put any feeling into his playing, just because Marco's songs are more melodic in comparative style does not mean andy's songs have any less feeling in them...
Marco is way better, Andy is a great player and technically incredible. But Marco is one of the greatests of the generation. Just listen to his Albums. You'll know what I mean.
Andy: I got all them tasty arpeggios Marco: hold my beer... Seriously though, both these guys breathe fresh air into guitar playing every time they write new material. Stellar players!
When I saw this for the first time, the first thought that went through my head was imagining this being titled "Anything you can do, I can do better", then in my head hearing Marco say "Hey, watch this" and then proceed to make the room explode by playing Still Hurts.
Great guys! Their fingers' so fluid. Must be the zenith of shredding. Scenes like these create nostalgic moment for me. Ah, I miss Shawn Lane, the guitar slinger of the 90's. I could not size up how well he can compete with these guys. I could dream of it, just in my mind. Great time. Argh, I'm hallucinating.
I love the people trying to compare who is better between guys like Sfogli, James, Petrucci... etc etc. But the truth is that when you've reached the lofty heights that these virtuoso's have, there's naught but the breadth of a hair to differentiate. Marco is my favorite guitarist, and not by a small margin, but guys like James and Petrucci and Vai and Abasi and throw any other name in there you want are so beyond my ability to emulate that it really doesn't matter.
I just LOVE how he wrote the keyboard solo first at the end of Never Forgive Me and THEN decided "hm, what if I learn and perform that kickass solo ON THE GUITAR ALSO?!" xD
they are both super guitarist!.we cant compare them,andy has hes own style marco has hes own style to.andy is a soulful player and marco is also a soulful player.
My brain is to retarded to understand how awesome these guys are, so i entered in panic for no being able to get an idea of how the laws os physics aply for them, so i started to cry
80' s guitar players are the.best lots wt feel great guitar tone great vibratos. Vinnie Moore kee Marcelo.ritchie kotzen yngwie malmsteen Joey taffola tony Mack Alpine greatest of all.
