I am cursed with a love of melody and an intolerance of noodling.
I'm partial to a bit of noodling a la
Clapton, who claims he never plays any tune the same way twice, but I like melody too. I listen to a fair bit of classical music and, thankfully, you rarely get noodling in that!
Really? Clapton's been playing the same solos for decades!
Not according to him! I either read it or saw it in a documentary on guitarists, Mark Knopfler on the other hand says he sees his job is to exactly recreate each tune!
