1. Great technician
who actually has something to say with his technique. . unlike Steve Vai. Flame away, but Vai is like a man who can speak fourteen languages flawlessly and can't express an original thought in any of them. Now when he was with Zappa, it was a different story.

Didn't RM play with Van Morrison at one time? Van don't hire nobody without soul.

2. He played one full album with Van and part of another one.

He also played for Edgar Winter in "They Only Come Out at Night", which has "Free Ride" and "Frankenstein" on it. The guitar on those tunes was him and Rick Derringer.

Here is Ronnie's discography.
