Still one of my favorite guitarists of all time. His solo stuff ranges from beautiful genius to absolute madness.

“Murderers” is fantastic.

Beautiful genius to absolute madness is also a range that Kojima is familiar with.

There's 2 guitarists that come to mind where they are 0% technical and it just 'comes to them'. It seems like they are channelling directly from the heavens and it really makes the music seem ethereal and magic. That would be John Frusciante and Mike McCready.

I wouldn’t say Frusciante isn’t technical but I get what you’re saying haha

“The Will to Death” and “Curtains” are just such fantastic albums

I think my all time favorite is Niandra Lades and Usually Just a T-Shirt. It's a wild album but it came to me during a special time in my life and holds a lot of nostalgic value. Plus Running Away Into You is just a brilliant song.

Running Away into You is indeed excellent! Such a weird little song!

His version of “Song to the Siren” brings me to tears occasionally.

It’s the only time where eclectic doesn’t seem like an over the top description
