AH: I tried to make my playing a part of the whole thing. And I would be allowed to do whatever I wanted with my solo section. But I didn't usually affect anything else that much. I was just thought of as somebody to fill up the space. | AH: I tried to make my playing a part of the whole thing. And I would be allowed to do whatever I wanted with my solo section.

Did you enjoy playing with Allan Holdsworth on your album “The Acatama Experience” in 2007? | |||
I’m such a big fan of Allan Holdsworth. I think he’s a genius with the guitar. What really moves me the most is that his playing is so emotional. It’s not just astonishing on a technical point of view of the notes he plays, but it is the emotion that it carries through its playing. I met him a long-long time ago. I invited him a few times. In 1977 on my album “Enigmatic Ocean”. That was the first time. But there was another album after that, I think it’s on “Individual Choice” in 1983. And from all the solos he has done on my albums, this last one (ed: in the song “Point of No Return” from “The Acatama Experience” album) is the most beautiful for me. | |||
