Funny how people see Jim's playing as plinky plonky when the first memory of his playing I have is the middle section in sultans in 1996 where he played marvellous jazzy things akin to little stories inside the song. These passages were different at every date. Listen to Caen recording if you caen.
When he was given that space in marbletown in 2015 where he just went where his mind told him to, his playing was heavenly at times.
And he sure can boogie like hell! How he can keep that insane rhythm at times while playing a thousand notes is beyond me.
As for the subject of Ian vs Danny, I couldn't tell, I loved Chad
