At the Edge
From Allan Holdsworth Information Center
The Unreachable Star (Guitar World 1989)
GW: The guitar line from "Wish" is identical to the melody Paul Williams sings on "The Things You See (When You Haven't Got your Gun)" [IOU]. HOLDSWORTH: That's because I counted nothing we did on that album. Usually, if I record something and feel that was the right place for it, I'll leave it to rest and never do another version of it again. I think that can only be said of that album; I can't remember anything else. The only time I ever did that was when it was unfinished - for example, on that Gordon Beck thing, we did a tune that turned out to be "The Things You See," or part of it, but that was before it was really finished. When we did the I.O.U. thing, I put it to rest.
