Allan Holdsworth | '''''Summary''': Allan Holdsworth initially discovered his interest in music by listening to records from his father's collection. His father was a jazz piano player, and Allan was exposed to artists like Charlie Christian, Joe Pass, Jimmy Raney, and Tal Farlow. Although he started as a guitarist, he wanted to play the saxophone. Lacking the funds for a saxophone, he began learning the guitar from his uncle and gradually developed a unique approach to the instrument. Holdsworth's musical exploration focused on understanding scales, chords, and harmonies, as well as experimenting with long-scale baritone guitars to achieve distinctive tones. He sought to develop a deep connection between his musical ideas and the guitar, aiming to play what he heard in his mind. This path led him to create a distinctive, groundbreaking guitar style.'' | ||
