Mr. Howe is no average player. He is a life changer. His abilities make me feel insignificant after spending 50 years as a player myself. One of God's gifts to us. Thank you Steve. Bravo.

i've been loving Steve Howe's guitar music for more than 40 years. It makes me relax deeply satisfaction. At the point, he is the best guitarist in this world to me. Athough,I have many favorite guitarists but his music about guitar is the best match with me. He has gotten classic sense in the original stance, that is one of the biggest reason. And I love Art that is impossible to say but Yes music does, Right ? Everyone here I think you know what I mean. So I love Rick Wakeman too. I respect him and love his way forever.

Then I started to listening Mood 4 a day, Ancient, Clap and all of Yes songs.... It's really amazing with different taste of music, Steve & Yes is very sophisticated but ultimately beautiful.... no other guitarist can performed & play like Steve Howe, the maestro!

Totally agree! The whole world knows Howe is more than a great guitar player (any style/instruments), nevertheless he is more impressive to me as composer! First with The Syndicats, then Tomorrow, and to blossom inside Yes, Asia and GTR. Self-taught instrumentist into constant evolution, he amazed me with his musical creations. His creativity was always at high level, very close to perfection, every note is always at the right place, and he created so many prog classic tracks it is difficult to say which one is the best because there is so much! For me, he is the Einstein of electric guitar! A guitar player must give me emotion firstly, and they are just a few able to do that: Paul Kossoff, Robin Trower, Frank Zappa, David Gilmour, Steve Howe, each one with their own different style, however on a composer side Howe is my fav one by far! It is as if he was especially born to play on that guitar instrument, able to create (and often emulate by Jon Anderson) wonderful songs with long instrumental parts, and had been touched by the magic for his technic to play that bewitched electric or acoustic 6 strings!
