Impressive shredding. But Clapton isn’t known for his shredding, and while Hendrix was an innovator in some “shredding” techniques, he’s not famous for mere finger speed, either. It’s kinda like hitting a home run and saying it would make Ozzie Smith blush and Rickey Henderson blush. Heck, Clapton is known as “Slow Hand.” Hendrix was legendary for his use of equipment and pedals like a volume pedal to craft the shape of his sound, and the pitch bender; as well as for innovative chords and tonalities; and yeah, just like Henderson could actually blast it, he totally shredded; it’s simply not what made him a legend. Meanwhile, Van Halen DOES hit notes much faster than Campbell, but by relying on an entirely different technique (2-handed tapping) that makes the comparison unfair to Campbell.
Campbell, of course, is not famous for his shredding (even in the loose sense I’m using it), but I love that he’s saying, “Hey, I can do what those metal guys do, too!” Because he IS really good. But superlatives like that don’t convince people that Campbell is great, only that in your exaggeration you picked the first three rock guitarists you could think of.
Glen Campbell was a very good guitarist.
