Jimmy Johnson, bassist: “Allan Holdsworth reinvented the guitar and changed music as we know it. This is an extremely rare occurrence. John Coltrane, Tony Williams and Jaco Pastorius are examples of this. Most musicians’ voices are the sum of their early influences. With these players mentioned above, you can’t hear any history, and you can’t tell who they listened to. It’s as if they came from another planet and mastered their instruments without hearing anybody before them.” | |||
