Pure deconstructed emotion flowing out of the guitar, in ways that never cease to surprise me in its originality and scope. He plays guitar the way Miles Davis played trumpet at his best, and that is to me pretty much the greatest compliment I can give a musician.
I really need more of his stuff than I have now. Any especial recommendations people?

i completely agree w/ yr assessment. i've been a big fan ever since Road Cone started putting out some stuff in the early 90s.
i can wholeheartedly recommend these:
hells kitchen park
crucible
9th avenue
they are utterly beautiful and heart rending.
