Best, T His reputation does precede him, but yes you are right he deserves more recognition, not least because his legato style is fairly unique! Thanks for the link, I need to get some of his albums! -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

Legato style - very pianistic, for pull offs he hammers on rather than pulls off if you get my meaning.

Yeah, I read somewhere that guitar wasn't his first choice, something else was - maybe sax? Anyway, he developed his legato style to make the guitar sound more like his chose instrument! -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

Think you are spot on about the sax for Holdsworth Kris - certainly he wanted (still wants) to emulate Coltrane and so on. The link for the compilation double cd - Against the Clock - is:
Alternity records (Alternity Records 1001 Avenida Pico, C 177 San Clemente, CA 92673) Alternity have some of his back catalogue as well (*sigh* I have early lp's - UK/Brufford/Metal Fatigue/Sand and so but on vinyl. Need to either cut them to mp3 or get the cds  to listen to them.) There is however a great internet site that has digitised downloads of jazz concertsfrom the 60s/70s/80s. I ncluding Holdsworth from the late 70s (Tony Williams late 70s and also Allan Holdsworth circa Metal Fatigue.) Don't know if its legal  . I can paste the address Kris if you are happy that I do...Also Holdsworth is guesting on 3 (maybe 4) tracks on the forthcoming PlanetX album: Planet X should be good  .Kris and Andrew - every now and again when I think my chops are getting ok I listen to Allan and realise how far I have to go ( I can play some, or bits, of his stuff)- but what a beautiful (if, for me) long journey. The guy is amazing and inspirational; as is this site. Keep up the good work - v much appreciated.
