Amazing what these kids do. At his age I was playing Smoke on the Water and Aqua Lung...

I was thinking that too! I was probably in my late 20's before I could appreciate listening to that style, much less play it. Still have to listen to Holdsworth songs a few times before I get them.

Melodic players MUST know EVERY scale in the book, I don't. I'm a blue-collar sideman, so comping and being a color is kindda the priority. I usually explain it in my clinics as the "98%/2% Theory." In the real world, the guitar solo (if any) of a song is only about 2% of the entire song but we spend 98% of our time trying to figure out that solo.

Nevertheless, the younglings are getting better and better.

Whoa! I think this cat just MIGHT have a future in music (sarcasm intended!).

Kind of reminds of the first time I saw EJ play with the Electromagnets in Houston in about '73-'74 (I was in my mother's womb at the time).
