That's gotta be Terry Crewes, right?

It's very dated at this date, but listen to this track from Eric Johnson. The beginning is a lot of "preamble", but when he finally gets into the melody he has a lot of additional, impressive finger work. In my opinion, better than Eddie Van Halen did, and so many guitar buffs say EVH is a guitar god. So why didn't Eric Johnson ever make it big?

I don't think Eric Johnson is disregarded as a guitarist's guitarist.
If I remember correctly, many annual polls put EJ in the top five all-time, up there with Jimi.
This video (which I found at the end of yours) is hugely telling. EJ plays the solo that is theclimax culmination pinnacle apotheosis. Viewer comments seem to bear that out.
ETA: What would Miles say about EVH: "Too many notes!"

What would Miles say about Joey Santiago, if he had heard him? "Stay away from the brown acid!"

They responded well to bleach ingestion and very bright light (attempts at humor).

Thanks for letting me know you were joking, I never would've guessed!

I was modifying attempts at humor with very bright light.
But, your way works as well.
Joking about disease and illness, however, would be very dark.

Great article. I didn't realize there was such turmoil in the band at the time. But out of a miserable time came, what I think, is their greatest album, even if it is criminally overlooked still today.

I enjoy both Syd-era Pink Floyd was well as post-Syd Pink Floyd. That's somewhat unusual, apparently.
