Thanks for posting this treasure.

In Pop Culture, not really. But Art Music composers use...or at least used....tools of composition, rather than 'styles' and such. So while they may've been stimulated and intellectually guided by their mentors and predecessors, their harmonic and rhythmic languages were actually unique. Examples: Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Wagner, Ravel/Debussey/Scriabin, Schoenberg, Berg/Webern, Stockhausen/Boulez/Berio/Babbi

@zeruchnet is anyone?

Actually a lot of Holdsworth phrasing seems to very much evoke Coltrane during his "sheets of sound" phase, as well as some of the more modal elasticity of Shorter and the bursts of Cannonball Adderly. That isn't particularly news since Allan has fessed up to borrowing from those players and others quite liberally.
He certainly is his own player, but he is very much not one from none.

@IcolossusPSN Nonsense. Coltrane never came up with these riffs. Coltrane never played chords like we hear on IOU. To say AH is just Coltrane is just simplistic & ignorant.
