A few years ago, after a few too many, I talked to a friend of mine and was kind of 'complaining' that I had already interviewed all my favorite guitarplayers, what to do now? 'Well, interview them again", he stated flatly. Which is of course a great idea and so I present you.. Allan Holdsworth, part II. | A few years ago, after a few too many, I talked to a friend of mine and was kind of 'complaining' that I had already interviewed all my favorite guitarplayers, what to do now?

Allan was playing De Boerderij in Zoetermeer with Ernest Tibbs and Joel Taylor. Sony scheduled an interview for me that I was happy to do, but since Allan was late from playing Belgium the night before, the interview got cancelled that same afternoon. I went to the gig with drummer Bas Cornelissen. Surely we found Allan at the bar, we talked a bit and being the English gentleman he is, he suggested to have our conversation anyway, during the break of the gig. Bassie asked some questions here and there too. | Allan was playing De Boerderij in Zoetermeer with Ernest Tibbs and Joel Taylor.
