i do agree yngwies stuff is repetivie and thanx for corecting me earlier..i did mean cleaner tone..allot of yngwie early stuff is good adn i like his concert suite album..i dont see wats so special bout becker makin a cd at the age of 17-18 he was a prodigy ..he was introduced to the guitar at a real early age by his parents but im sure u prob know that.. jason has some made sweeps but now days there are more talented ppl technical wise.. musicall wise i believe that beethoven and all the great composers were the most musically talented but thats a ways back
