'''''Summary''': Allan Holdsworth, a highly acclaimed guitarist, remains modest about his talents, despite praise from peers like Pat Metheny, Eddie Van Halen, and Carlos Santana. He downplays his past achievements and unconventional approach to playing guitar. Holdsworth's career has included collaborations with various bands, yet he frequently moved on due to creative limitations. His dissatisfaction with the crowded sound of keyboard-heavy bands led him to form his own trio, I.O.U., with drummer Gary Husband. The band struggled initially, even releasing their album independently. However, a positive response from American audiences during a tour revitalized Holdsworth's confidence and career prospects.'' | '''''Summary''': Allan Holdsworth, a highly acclaimed guitarist, remains modest about his talents, despite praise from peers like Pat Metheny, Eddie Van Halen, and Carlos Santana.
