definately not some cold accurate number of notes per beat playing must bend till pitch perfect. Totally different league from shredder's expectations. heck, its groovy music and it sounds very good to me than just a bunch of fast arpegios. Some kind of Santana feel in his playing...very nice.
his playing chops was the best back in the 80's and early 90's with beyond,
in thoses days thier songs have loads of solo and harmonizing and sherding. i would say one of the best in asian rock music, but these days, paul concentrates more on acoustic guitar and song writing for his solo material, even on electric would be some simple bluesy stuff.....
