Mike B, Mr. Maartian. Ray C... Thanks for your comments.

This may seem an odd way to create music – ultimately deleting all the parts I actually composed and performed – but they had played their role in the generation of the solo, and only sounded mediocre in concert with it.

It's like Ludwig Wittgenstein said at the end of Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus:

Quote:
My propositions serve as elucidations in the following way: anyone who understands me eventually recognizes them as nonsensical, when he has used them—as steps—to climb beyond them. (He must, so to speak, throw away the ladder after he has climbed up it.)

He must transcend these propositions, and then he will see the world aright.

Well, not exactly like that.
