Very, very cool. My guitar teacher, Jim Steinke, was taught by Jorma way back in the day. Embryonic Journey is one of the songs he really spent a lot of time on. There is a lot of nuance and technique in that song that I've revisited over the years with Jim. One thing in particular was to rake my pointer finger on the A chord upstroke of that main riff. It's a small change but it makes a subtle but pleasing difference in the sound. Same with the closing riff and final chord. Raked up with my forefinger, it's quite striking.
