the greatest and worst thing that ever happened to me as a guitarist was becoming acutely aware of Allan Holdsworth. I have now spent years trying to come to grips with the fact that I cannot be him, sound like him. I can come close, I can play his notes, but you ultimately just have to be yourself. And after listening to Allan, that can be painfully disappointing. Maybe I can start a 12 step program! "Recovering from Holdsworthism; a guitarists escape from despair!" Cheers Allan!
what tune is this? it's pretty sweet!!!

@jazzpsalti San Michele. Look for the Live at Yoshi's DVD, or the Blues for Tony CD.
