Could not agree more.
Hearing fingers move on strings is just hearing the whiole instrument. I don't know any way to play some stuff without that.
One song on the latest Opeth album has a ton of finger scratching, and it just sounds like he is sitting there playing in front of me.

But... it's not what you put in, is it? It's what you leave out. Listen to... listen to Marvin Gaye... A song like "What's Going On." That single "woo" at the end of the second verse - you know that woo - that single "woo."
WILLIAM
I know that, "woo."

That's what you remember. The silly things, the little things... there's only one, and it makes the song. It's what you leave out. That's rock and roll.

Is this only Pearl Jam? I don't know, but I'm thinking of one from the Black Crowes - in the song Midnight from the Inside Out, the guitar intro gets butchered... he misses a note and it feeds back like hell before they start again. But it fuckin rocks.... probably my favorite intro to a song ever. It gives me a guitar face just listening to it.
I agree, it's definitely a very cool intro to an album. I love it!
Long Road, there is a load of chord changes that are missed or someone goes to the wrong chord or whatever. I think that song was done in the first take so thats understandable.
Any of Bob Dylans old albums, all those tunes were done in a couple of takes with the musicians studying the back of Dylan's hands to try and predict the chord changes, of course sometimes they missed them and there are licks played over the wrong chord etc. or licks played throughout the verse and when the chorus starts they are played once before they realise they should have stopped.

I'm pretty sure it's Uncle Neil who says that, but yes...awesome! It adds character.
