Thank you for that! Amazing mastery. Though I think he may have 'migrated upward' slightly since (probably from being around Fripp...)

Also checked out Psycho Killer from the same concert. Lots of thela hun indiscipline towards the end...

So I noticed there's this general conflict how to hold your electric
guitar, more specifically how long the shoulder strap should be.
Generally it's accepted that while having a long strap looks cooler
(and is thus indispensable for rock music), only with a short strap
good command of the instrument is possible - that's why all the jazz
cats etc. accept that they look stupid and have the guitar hanging at
chest level.

Well, here's to prove different - a virtuoso guitarist with his
instrument at knee level:
