WHAT!!!!!???????
Guess I've got to creak the coffin lid open again.
I have very mixed feelings about The Police, and it's probably the case
that they weren't really a showcase for wild guitar, but to describe
Andy Summers as "indifferent" is so far off the beam as to be
laughable...Just check out "Peggy's Blue Skylight" for his take on
Mingus, or his work with Fripp
'nuff said - can you imagine RF working with somebody who was
indifferent?
