  1. Sulla fruibilità è solo una questione di abitudine, Holdsworth fa melodie articolate spessissimo, non vuol dire che siano brutte anzi a me personalmente certe dissonanze certi richiami tra gli accordi piacciono tantissimo!
  2. Anche sul suono VH era avanti, son due grandissimi, per motivi diversi come detto sopra.
  3. La musica è anche sapere e scienza.
  4. Here's what a few respected players have to say about him... I put Holdsworth up there with Paganini and Liszt. Terrifying. David Lindley I've known Allan and his music for 30 years now, and after all this time, he still amazes me. His concept is still advancing with his playing and his technical prowess--which is phenomenal, and is in complete harmony with his very advanced musical direction. I saw him about 14 years ago, and, after the concert, I said to him, "If I knew what you were doing, I'd steal everything, but I don't know what you are doing!" ~ John McLaughlin When I hear Allan playing the guitar-besides being emotionally swept away by his use of melodic color--most of the time, I am utterly stunned and confused by what I am hearing. His chops and inner ear completely defy my own inner musical eay and reasoning, and I'm left in a blissful state of humility and surrender. ~ Steve Vai Holdsworth is so damned good that I can't understand what he's doing. I've fot to do this [does two-hand tapping], whereas he'll do it with one hand. ~ Eddie Van Halen Allan's beautiful and unique chord voicings have always had an impact on me. His approach to guitar is one of a kind. He pushes the limits of the boundaries of electric guitar, and his lead phrasing would make Charlie Parker smile. His playing is essential listening for any guitarist, of any style, so they can see that the only limits we have are the ones we put on ourselves. ~ Eric Johnson Hearing Allan's guitar playing for the first time was a cathartic experience. His gutar sang, it pushed musical boundaries, and it rocked. His brilliant approach to harmony is completely original, beautiful, and spellbinding. His technique and improvisational skills make him a true guitar god--the jaw-dropping kind that influences many a player in all styles of music. To witness him playing with Tony Williams' band--a Gibson SG around his neck, Small Stone Phaser, and Marshall stack in tow--was something I'll never forget. He ripped a hole in the guitarist's space-time continuum that night, and we've never been the same. ~ Joe Satriani Allan really changed guitar playing. The legato techniques and "sheets of sound" approach influenced not only jazz guitarists, but also a whole generation of metal players. And aside from all the technical stuff, he's a master jazz guitarist. Check out his version of "How Deep Is the Ocean." ~ John Scofield Allan wanted to sound like John Coltrane. Problem was he's playing guitar, not saxophone, so he had to figure out a way to get a similar "sheets of sound" equivalent on guitar. The scales and intervals he chose were also all unusual, and he didn't become just one of the great scalar improvisers overnight. He worked like a dog on Nicolas Slonimsky's Thesaurus of Scales and Melodic Patterns. Then, when he'd run out of notes he'd reach for the whammy bar and send shivers down your spine. ~ Bill Bruford Allan plays legato parts like a violinist. His right hand might as well be a bow, because his left hand is like Paganini's. You can call his playing whatever you want to, but it will still fry your brain if you try to figure it out. John McLaughlin, Michael Stern, John Scofield--all os us just scratch our heads and go, "Damn!" ~ Carlos Santana Allan's prodigious technique and soring, melodic fluidity are inspiring and daunting. That tone! The amazing accuracy of his pull-offs! That limpid wang bar! Like other giants such as Jimi Hendrix or Jeff Beck, he spawned generations of imitators who, in a way, threaten to make one forget how great the original master is. Don't succumb to this! None of them can touch the man himself. ~ Nels Cline Only the elite musician wishes not to imitate. Originality--and finding your own voice--are the only beacons the elite musician follows. Allan is one of those musicians. ~ Jeff Berlin Giusto per ...
  5. L'impatto di holdsworth è enorme, già nei soft machine stava avanti vent'anni. Basta chiedere a van halen, satriani, vai...

      Yessa! Le grafiche non mi hanno impressionato come le sculture!

  6. Ocio il chorus è parte del suo suono , ma se ti riferisci al timbro tipico della distorsione usava yamaha dg prima e ora hughes & kettner, se non ricordo male con i dg c'è un banco di fabbrica da cui partiva come base, molto poi lo fanno le mani, le sue mani.
  7. Mi riferivo a quella cosa che inizia per i e finisce per diozia.
  8. Se c'è il black metal perchè stupirsi del worship? La matrice è quella.
  9. Eivind Aarset, dico io musicista enorme, sapevatelo.
