[[File:16men.jpg|200px|right]]"The Sixteen Men Of Tain" is a 2000 solo album by Allan Holdsworth. The album features Allan on guitar and SynthAxe. This album introduced a new band: Dave Carpenter and Gary Novak, plus a new sound: This time, it was Allan’s own tunes, but with a softer, jazzier feel, which Novak heavily underscored. Perhaps due to the band feeling, as well as what seemed like new inspiration, it is often seen as one of Allan’s best albums. The title track and “The Drums Were Yellow” stand out as guitar statements, while “Above And Below” is one of the defintive Holdsworth chord melody ballads. This album has also been released in a new edition with the added tracks "San Onofre" and "Material Unreal", which is the version currently available on Manifesto. | [[File:16men.jpg|200px|right]]"The Sixteen Men Of Tain" is a 2000 solo album by Allan Holdsworth.
