I've watched a video of Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page playing together, recently, which was great. Even though I'm not a particular fan of either, when I practice I'd rather listen to people who give an air of knowing what they're doing, rather than in your face weird, or too noisy guitarists. Another rule I set for myself is trying to stay away as much as I can from the ''SY school of guitar-playing'', at least when it comes to this instrument, not because I have major problems with it, of course, just because I strive to be influenced by it from afar. Besides, I really enjoy quite a bit of prog, viruoso-psych, and more popular old rock to start with.
