but i thought of Lenny Kravitz when I saw this post. he has a great ear for rythym and plays in the pocket well, but his solos for the most part always leave me disappointed. he is a good rythym guitar player tho, so maybe he's just not a lead guitar type.

as far as Radiohead and anyone having an idea that being a great musician has only to do with proficiency probably either needs to grow a heart or deepen their tastes. there's plenty of proficient classical music for instance, but most of it will leave you wanting emotionally.
