Allan Holdsworth is widely regarded as one of the twentieth century's great guitar virtuosos. Needless to say, that has afforded him the opportunity to work with some of our finest drummers. Born in Bradford, Yorkshire in Northern England in 1946, Holdsworth's first break came in the early '70s, when he teamed with drummer Jon Hiseman in Tempest. By 1975 he was working with John Marshall in Soft Machine. In that same year Holdsworth's growing reputation attracted the attention of Tony Williams, who invited Allan to join his New Lifetime. After working with Bill Bruford in U.K. and in Bill's solo band, Holdsworth decided to form his own trio with Gary Husband on drums. Since then he has done solo projects with such drummers as Chad Wackerman and Vinnie Colaiuta, and most recently with Kirk Covington (on Allan's current Japanese release, None Too Soon, whose U.S. distribution is pending). | Allan Holdsworth is widely regarded as one of the twentieth century's great guitar virtuosos.
