Subject: RE: Is Prissy Fingerpicking a Turnoff?
Another way of saying the same thing that BWL seems to be saying: "It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing."

Good solid weighty "swinging" playing can be either simple or complicated, just as lousy unfeeling lightweight monotonous playing can be either simple or complicated.

Technique isn't everyting. Real musicianship required musicality, which involves a certain depth of personal involvement.
