No big deal. I don't think the Who's sound or reputation either one is
built on how blazing fast Pete is on his guitar. He's developed a very
distinctive style, and the deficiencies only show up when he plays something
standard that can be compared to, say, Stevie Ray Vaughn. It's interesting
to hear him experiment, but I think it would be very hard for anybody to
follow Pete into his own territory.
