Anyone here have favorite examples of performances where the artist is readily identifiable despite minimal actual playing?
As an example, Jimmy Page's crystal-clear self-expression during the brief solo in "Sea of Love" by Plant/Honeydrippers...
...but my favorite example is Steve Howe in "The Last Time" on Asia's Aura album. Just a short series of single notes, yet the guitar part definitively proclaims "Howe!" even as it twists around Ian Crichton's parts.
