Fingerpicking is no schtick. I don't believe I'm reading that from someone I hold for a quality guitarist. And Lindsey, as you know yourself, is well aware of his own limitations as a guitarist. He works around those limitations remember? He sees himself as a refined primitive. Come on, I don't believe I'm writing this, Chili, he's been saying that himself for decades in every friggin interview.
The fact that he has his own limited but distinctive style, that he worked and trained as a madman doesn't make it a schtick. I know your love for talented masterbluesheroes on guitar, but Vito's ability to Copy Greenies tone is something else than the arranging Guitarist who has put his DNA in songs that are played in almost every freaking household on earth.
Behind the mask is an aweful, aweful album.
