It is obviously one of his more heavier solo's and not blessed with some of the subleties present on tracks such as JaS but is so raw and aggressive.
Great shout, after i posted the intial thread it also crossed my mind how much the solo from manalishi live gave me the goose bumps! I always thought it was like realy fancy scales as well but its just pure blues and amazing bending of notes being so creative and emotive. It seems at this time it was just flowing out of him.
