I like Greg- he seems to be able to play anything and doesn't take himself too seriously.

That little autoflanging bit he did was pure genius.

If you have the 50 years of the Strat book, "The Stratocaster Chronicles" , the CD that comes with it is done by Greg Koch and it's pretty good.  Amazing range of sounds.  I also have a Stevie Ray Vaughan style lesson DVD that he did that's very good too.

I have that book but have never listened to the CD. Maybe I'll get it out (the CD) over the weekend.
I think I hate being indecisive.

what a blast, it must be great to be able to play whatever you want ,which he clearly can. interesting that he finishes stairway on a serious note, as if it's sacrilage to mess with the solo/ending. zappa does the same thing , messing about
as he did but then doing the perfect solo/outro, it's on youtube somewhere.

He's also clearly eight feet tall. Every time he does a Fender demo I think, "Oh how cute, Fender have brought out a 3/4 scale range of guitars. Oh no, wait, it's Greg Koch." It's like watching Albert King play his Flying V - he made it look like a ukulele.

C’est magnifique, mais ce n’est pas la guerre

Great playing.

Lousy tune.
