Allan Holdsworth - Searching for purity. | '''''Summary''': The text discusses Allan Holdsworth's musical journey, his unique approach to guitar playing, and the impact he's had on other guitarists. Holdsworth's desire to achieve a saxophone-like expressive tone led him to develop a distinctive guitar technique involving amplification distortion, vibrato, and legato. The article delves into his use of the SynthAxe and his evolving musical styles over the years, including fusion and more experimental soundscapes. It also touches on his struggles with the traditional music industry and his aspirations for future projects and live performances.Allan Holdsworth - Searching for purity.'' | ||
