Este ser es un verdadero genio

I like Holdsworth but cannot get into old jazz sax or trumpet players, Allan goes far beyond that kind of thing.

Saves my day🤘....

OMG 14:35-14:40 Some crazy hybrid sweep picking?

Sounds terrific and it's a stereo mix - perfect! AH was on fire then! His band was the best.

Incredible to think that this performance is now over 30 years ago - mind blowing version of Looking Glass!

I love this frikken crowd 😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 what a great show . Immediate laughs of joy hit me on Allan’s first solo, I knew , oh it’s on. When Letters of Marque solo comes its jaw dropping . But it doesn’t stop building. This was a night to remember . Probably the only live version of Home , that sounds just like the Album version with all the background noise it’s great . You know usually , you hear any audience noise and you’re like okay whatever … but these guys are YELLING out requests too . Yeah they’re partying , but they’re there for Allan . Bet Allan loved it so much . As much as he would allow himself ;) God damnit I miss you Allan. Thank you for posting this show

This white line , is the most magical and picturesque version , it’s so frikken beautiful I get so happy and so god damn sad because I miss you Allan ❤️💔💗 , the band isnt just on fire , they’re musically playing this one with such reverence … it’s truly unique . thank you for this !!!! One day the world will discover AH like a JS Bach. Maybe they won’t , i don’t care . Those of us that went along for the ride , will never be the same

Saw this year and band , this is fkn amazing… Allan said at Catalina LA “ Hope Gary doesn’t scare you guys too much “ 😂 Allan haunted harder than I’d ever seen him , yes scare me baby , please !!!!!!

Can't believe Holdsworth hunted Sverrissons husband, but great record nevertheless

Recorded 28 April 1989 at Chicken George in Kobe, Japan.

Great setlist. One of my favorite Holdsworth bootlegs!

R.I.P., Allan Holdsworth - such a great but sadly underappreciated musician... One thing that set him appart from other truly great ligato guitarists like John McLaughlin, is that John McLaughlin, using natural phrasing around breath, came up to breathe now & then... Allan Holdsworth could go for such amazingly long stretches - full tilt - without comming up for air at all - and without a hint of a mistake or bad note along the way... Simply amazing.

you'd think zappa would of done something with allan. I mean his drummer was sneaking away to play with holdsworth

Incredible version of Bo Peep with Joel Taylor on the drums - never heard anything like this version before. Thank you for taking time to share this live recording, honoring the memory and rep of Allan Holdsworth. Fellow Allan buff, here. Subscribed.

Amazing, thank you!

Thank goodness so many of Allan’s live shows were recorded! This is epic stuff from The Master!

Jeezus H Kriste Almighty!!!

Spiders legs for fingers!!

Jimmy Johnson and Chad Wackerman .... what a rhythym section, hell ya

Too bad they didnt play Was There

Când lumea slăbește în jurul nostru, când structurile unei civilizații se clătesc, este bine să ne întoarcem la ceea ce, în istorie, nu slăbește, ci dimpotrivă redă curaj, adună pe cei despărțiți, liniștește fără vânătăi. Este bine de reținut că geniul creației este și el la lucru într-o poveste sortită distrugerii 🥸🤠

Allan, Tony, and Jaco. .I could just imagine. .that would have been a supergroup. .wow. .

"Generic and affordable," brilliantly explained and I liked how you adjusted the eq at the end, to demonstrate that the essential tone was there and that musicians need to get their own tone. Allan actually veered away from some of his tones and gear simply because everyone (that had heard him) wanted to clone his sound. But then, that's all credit to his work. By the way, you mentioned increasing gain when you play with the eq - you are right. Levels will increase if you are raising any frequencies, and also levels decrease with any dipping of frequencies.

Wow - if people wanted to hear what the Holdsworth fuss was all about I'd point them to this - totally on fire and the band is equally inspiring. So tight and blasting holes in the clouds. Wish we had a soundboard recording of this show - wow!

J'ai eu la chance de le voir avec ce trio... Je ne m'en suis jamais remis...

Maestro in scintillating form

I’d put Holdsworth in the same company as Mozart, Segovia and Rudess

Thanks for the upload, but, to be honest, this concert is from 1998 for the reason that Allan is using the Custom Bill DeLap custom guitar with his Yamaha amplifiers and, the previous year, he toured with the first Carvin Fatboy generation and Roland Jazz Chorus and Marshall amplifiers, which they have a completely different sound. Before 1998, he didn’t have this specific guitar sound, both for clean and lead sound.

What a great find. I think this was my favourite period of Allans with Steve Hunt on keys. In my opinion his playing was the best on his Delap guitars as well.

What a unique voice , one of a kind !!!! His example should inspire us all to find our own individual voice whatever our instrument

Great.❤

ALLAN en un genio , un maestro que estara siempre en mis oidos cada vez asombrandome mas con su obra ...lo escuche por los 1980 en U K .....y fue algo inolvidable ,,seguirá por siempre su guitarra mordiendo mis oidos .......

Thks! Bravo!

Indeed I first heard of Holdsworth from Eddie Van Halen..just like most of us Americans. Holdsworth was on the cover of Guitar Player Magazine back in 1982..the buzz was about his new album as leader called "I.O.U". I got the record right after I read the interview. I was only 11 or 12 at that time, but the album sunk its teeth in me like i was auditory prey--lol I spent a pretty good amount of time trying to get his sound..not the "red channel" lead sounds, but the volume swell chordal stuff.. My father got me that book "Reaching For The Uncommon Chord"in 85 or 86 where Holdsworth's tunes were all transcribed. I've never played like Holdsworth despite my obsession..but he has been with me in spirit and philosophy ever since. When Holdsworth died, Miles Alumnus Dave Liebman told of a time in the 90's at Montreaux where he and Michael Brecker saw Holdsworth with their own ears..and Allan went right over their heads! LOL I got a kick out of that anecdote. Dave Liebman and Michael Brecker were left speechless as great tenor players?? Wow man.. Holdsworth Lives

Nobody comes close

The greatest lineup Holdsworth ever had. No one comes close to Gary’s drumming

Fascinating.

Una falta de respeto la gente hablando mientras los músicos tocan.

Somehow not from earth.. oh my god: now i listen to the interview... him...and Tesla...

amazing tutorial, learned a lot about eq and delay that i apparently didnt know

Brilliant

Are there any recordings of Allan and Gary or Chad and Jimmy and Sculli and Steve at the Jazz Cafe in Camden in the early 90's please. Being an Englander,I saw all his gigs there,and they were all MAGNIFICENT TO SAY THE LEAST

I saw Allan play at the Robin 2, here in England, back in 2014 ; Gary Husband was on drums. It was an amazing night, but left me with one huge regret .. I didn't go shake Allans' hand as he stood all alone at the bar. I would have been too 'star struck' to talk to him. Amazing, amazing musician. R.I.P Allan ❤

OK this gig is explosive!!! unreal mastery/expression/elegance/connection and with some 'rare' live songs. Thank very much for sharing!!

I got to about half way into Allan's solo on Looking Glass and then starting cracking up and felt like crying ar the same time as my brain was scrambling to find a description for what I was hearing. How can humanity largely ignore an art form this high. Of course now I am crying listening to Allan's swell section. Oh heaven above, I hope Allan and Dave are well cared for up there coz they're sorely missed down here.❤

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Amazing performances... Allan was really on fire on this gig

That "Looking Glass" solo - good god!

Or 29/03/1984 for everyone living outside of the USA...
