I think being able to do both is what makes a great guitarist.

what he said.
I find my interest and taste in music changes over time. Right now I'm really into sambas and bossa novas - the Brazillian musicians. I just love the ambiguity of all those, what?, half-step chords? You know, the diminished, nineths, sixths and stuff. And the little surprizes that come when you're expecting one chord and another is played. I don't think all the nuances would remain if it was boiled down to three chords.
