I agree totally .. I'm not a guitar player so technically I can't judge ,, But as far a playing very tastefully he's near the top of the field . .

4+ decades later ,,. Carlos is still happening ... Smooth !!!!!

Eddie Vahalen with 1000 blistering noted per par, ill take Carlos anyday making 1 single note sing like no other guitar player can !
It's like comparing some speed metal drummer compared to a Steve Gadd groove !
No comparison !!!

I did notice in that first song "Samba Pa Ti" He goes back and forth between playing with thumb/fingers or that big triangular pick . He's playing soft picking with his fingers and gets a sharp , biting sound with the pick . What ever he wants at the time .
