Driving home from work the other day, I heard the Deep Purple song "Smoke on the Water". In my early days of learning the guitar, this was a simple song that anyone could play. Now 25 years later, I hear the other instruments (the organ and bass are KILLER), and see a new light in the songwriting. I find myself listening for the "feeling" in the song/playing much more now than when I was a metalhead teenager. I used to think that if I could play a song "note-for-note", that I had mastered it. My opinion has changed, for the better .
