Yes E..The EXACT words to Ed's style as he refered it is .."It's like falling down the stairs and landing on my feet"..
I can't play Randy solos..I prolly could if I learned them, they'd prolly be wrong. I don't know theory, so I'd be just wingin' it.
I agree with your words on Ed's style as being "Out of the box" even tho Ed did play the piano and won awards when he was young..he never applied theory to guitar ..he just woodsheddin' and thru trial and error and bangin' those ideas out with his Bro..we got those songs.
I'm from the VH school of playing..I play "out of the box"....local "heroes", some who are my friends ..no matter how good they are , can't duplicate what I do..because it's so unorthodox, because I made it up.
Lynch's playing sounds a bit out of the box, he just plays with a lot of fire..he developed his own thing..he knows theory ..didn't George take over Randy's students for a short time..but all Randy's students would show up wearing bow ties and just wanted to learn Randy licks..so he bailed.
All Three players had their own voice and contributed much inspiration at that time..but Ed was king...then came Yngwie.
Uli Roth was amazing, years before these guys..but went totaly unoticed..as well as Frank Marino. Most people just wrote them off as Jimi wannabes, but that's wasn't the case at all...yeah they loved Jimi just as Ed did , but they had much too offer as well..but only had a small cult-like following..prolly due to their music writing..and both were pretty strange birds I guess.
