My opinion of this?

Well, I think Leo’s guitar playing doesn’t need any praise.  But what I will say is, I’m not a fan so much of the singing here, although the fans go crazy. I’m preferring the instrumentals which luckily, that’s what most of it is here.

Also, Leo is such a complete guitarist, does he really benefit from Mike Gordon’s bass playing (although, I don’t think it’s taking anything away).?

All in all, fans of both Leo Lottke and Mike Gordon should enjoy this video.
