@vetmusician I'd cite Fripp and Summers for sure. Edge wrote the preface to Andy's book and gives him loads of credit. Or, maybe that was Edge's book?.. I can't recall exactly. By the way.... if you haven't yet.... you have to read "One Train Later" ... Andy's book. This is all semantic now and really musical taste is simply a subjective preference. It's not like we're attempting to determine objective truths by means of philosophy. Cheers.

I'd find specific examples supporting your contention that Edge is an important guitar pioneer far more convincing than being called dishonest for not agreeing. Why not elaborate on his invention of new "chord structures"; what chord did he invent? Was he the 1st to use echo? What makes him more innovative than say, Jaco Pastorius, or Hiromi "jazzers" who by definition, according to you, would have a "hard time with innovation"? How much jazz did you listen to before dismissing it?

In my opinion, Edge (and U2) did a lot for the post-punk of the day. Where The Buzzcocks, The Damned, and Joy Division were sticking to a formula, U2 strayed away from that. You can hear U2's influence in a lot of "mainstream" music. Edge an innovator? No. He was just someone who spiced things up a bit. He made things interesting. I don't think anyone should put him down. He's great for what he does. Anyway, putting Edge and John McLaughlin together in a sentence is pretty absurd.

Given that modern jazz has largely become a historical music, yes, it's somewhat true that jazzers have a hard time with innovation. To ignore the importance of the Edge within the context of the history of rock and roll music is to be intellectually dishonest to the highest degree.

If you can't support a quantifiable specific ("chord structure"), how am I to "apply" your vague, general claims re-Edge's rock "innovations" in their "entirety"? "Jazzers have a hard time with innovation" is indeed a dismissal; I named 2 (among many) extremely innovative players, which you ignored. We have no partnership in inquiry; you're just making unsupported generalizations, and calling me dishonest when I ask you to support the general claims with specifics you can't provide.

Perhaps if you'd applied my example in it's entirety, you'd not have come across as though you're arguing with yourself. ie: tones, techniques, applications....within the context of rock music. Read Andy Summer's book "One Train Later". Also, try not to make unsupported claims about me... such as..."How much jazz did you listen to before dismissing it." Quote the relevant 'graph where I "dismiss" jazz. Like I said already in different terms....you're not an honest partner in inquiry.

"Jazzers" have a hard time with innovation? You're joking, I guess. If by Edge, you mean U2's guitarist, you must have access to something besides U2, because although his tone and extensive use of echos is distinctive, it wasn't new. By "chord structure" do you mean voicings? Sorry, but they've all been done, and his harmonic vocabulary is pretty limited. Why not just say you like him instead of all the hype?

Go watch "It Might Get Loud" and see that even Jimmy Page gets screwed up trying to play one of Edge's parts the same way.... and that's without his stack of effects on. David Torn, Mike Hedges, Steve Vai, the Edge. Players who changed the game.
