Speaking as a harmonica player, this is a bit like the difference between listening to Toots Thielemans and Stevie Wonder.

When I listen to Toots, I'm thinking, "This is amazing, and wonderful! Aw man, I could never do anything like that."

When I listen to Stevie, I'm thinking, "This is amazing, and wonderful! Wait a minute... It's not that complicated. Maybe I'll never have the soul Stevie does, but if I can't do exactly that, maybe I could do something like that!"
