Who wants to go first....?
No - he's crap. Totally unoriginal, lacking emotion, can't write a decent song, has a really poor guitar sound and copies virtually every other player of note. (Is this the sort of reply you expected on a QUEEN forum!!??!!!!)
admire and appreciate him hugely, but sometimes seems to me like he could do better. Of course, maybe that is just a deceive.
Listening to his playing in the 70s and compare it to the last 10 years.. he's gone bad. He can still play.. but his brain just can't come up with lively fresh new stuff. The solo in Say It's Not True just sounded like all the standards put together. Too bad. I think he's too busy to relax and let it flow.
