TOKYO DREAM IS THE BEST SONG OF ALL TIME
I'll admit that I don't find his music listenable, but he was in a category all his own. He was so experimental and out of the box that I can't help but to respect him as a guitarist.
F from a fellow headless guitar player.

Holy fuck, would I have loved to see that.
He really was One of a Kind
