I think Neil Young can do with a few notes more than some people can do with
a zillion notes(ie..Yngwie Malmstreem, etc...). He really captures the
passion of his songs and uses feedback in such an incredibly creative way.
His playing really grabs me, pulls at my soul. He possesses a unique style
that stands out in my book. Others that stand out to me are Alex Lifeson
(Rush), Jerry Garcia (Grateful Dead), and Martin Barre(Jethro Tull), Robert
Fripp(King Crimson)...I am more impressed guitarists like these who have
developed a very personal, unique style than any "virtuoso" lead player.
And Neil's famous one note solo was from "Cinammon Girl". "Down By the
River" has more than one note. :>)
