Hi, Marty! You have been playing guitar, writing music and performing for many years. What are the main differences you perceive between the early Marty Friedman and the Marty Friedman from nowadays? Thanks

I play so much better now, I can`t even compare the two. I had some good content in the early stuff but the depth was very limited compared to now. The performance then was nowhere near what I would accept now. One thing you could compare is, listen to how I used to trail off notes, or connect notes, the space between notes back then and now. Even if I was playing some good stuff back then, that subtle but very important part of playing is what is so much better now, I believe. Over time I have become extremely conscious of the space (or lack thereof) between the notes. That is what makes music sweeter.
