Here is draft for a Allan Holdsworth filmography of commercially released material. The actual entries for these items have not been standardized. As always on this site, the basis for the entries is what Allan himself had to say about them. And usually what he had to say about being filmed on stage was that he didn't like it. Allan did not appreciate live recordings at all. Knowing that his performance was being recorded only added to the pressure of performing. My impression is that film cameras only exacerbated the situation. The concert in Tokyo in 1984 was filmed according to a contract, but its release on Laserdisc was NOT approved by him. These experiences made him even more wary. In the cases of the later jazz festivals he appeared on, a TV production was often a stipulation of the contract, which he was more or less forced to accept. Do keep this in mind as you marvel at some of these performances. The filmography lists the films in order of release.
