and fail, miserably. Because no-one, i mean no-one can create a genius riff/solo/song like him. i'm not overrating him on the account of his premature death, but for his sheer brilliance. one guitarist being vastly overrated for being deceased is enough.

There are several deceased musicians who are overrated: Kurt Cobain, Marc Bolan, Jeff Buckley for a start.
Millions of living overrated guitarists as well.

Listen in class. A waltz is an extremely basic musical concept.

I have an undying hate for Kurt. My hate for him will possibly last longer than he ever lasted.

What was Kurt Cobain's greatest release?
