Not sure which ASmith thread to bring this up but might as well be here. Been thinking a lot about Perry’s style - in particular his tendency toward chromatic runs. In particular : three mile smile - lick and a promise - sweet emotion verse - even fucking walk this way. It’s pretty characteristic to my ears at least. Less sure about his solo prowess but as a rhythm player, dude ranked an A.
