Not taking anything away from Brian, but he knows how "hard" this is to play. On the other hand, writing such a melodic piece as this is a different story! :)

    Hi Brian, I remember me being on board KLM flight from Amsterdam to Los Angeles. On the upper deck business class of a Boeiing 747 maybe around 1993 (i lost that detail) . It was half empty and I had a chance to talk to you. I will never forget we shared a couple of thoughts over Freddy, children and my child I was going to visit in SFO. It was my only chance to ever meet you but felt just as down to earth as you are then and totally forgot ( I even found it perhaps childish) to ask for your precious autograph. Until today I cherish these wonderful moments with you there. Regretfully living,, almost being 69 now , without having the tangible memory in hand. God bless you.

      I had to listen to it's late first though. Blown away. Life changing stuff.

      He said he wasn't the greatest technical player in the world. Which is true, he's not a virtuoso player, but he never set out to be that. Having the humility to admit that doesn't take away from the fact that he's on the level with other greats in his category, players like Clapton and Hendrix, guitar heroes who are not virtuosos either.
