      I've watched this maybe 15 times now. Every time I'm more blown away by all three musicians, not only Allan.
      Carpenter's chord comping and melodies, Novak's speed, feel and time, while playing gently, so amazing. The camera angles are incredible in allowing us to see all of this. The video editing is on the soloist at the time...doesn't dwell on the drummer, for example, during the guitar solo as so many of the TV shows did.
      This show truly is a gift to fans/students of music and musicianship.

      dave = basslines and chords at the same time! novak was so deft, but the audio is weird here, it's been remastered so the cymbals sound bad! ia like the other recording! carpenter is also buried in this remaster.

    I'm relatively new to Holdsworth, but after watching a handful of live performances and listening to his studio albums it seems to me that Dave Carpenter complements him better than the other (very good) bass players who worked with him. His use (Carpenter's) of chords during Allan's solos are amazing. And the drummer is very good, too. What a band!

      Yes, Carpenter is on another level, maybe a Holdsworth of the bass.
      Novak is my favorite of his drummers as well, can keep a light touch while playing quick, and tasty as well.

      Ever seen his explanations of how he develops chords and licks. It is another language, but from a jazz theory standpoint it is based on known scales, but with the Holdsworthian one note modification that makes them uniquely his.

    Saw Allan (Unbelievable on Mr. Spock and Devil Take the Hindmost) with Ernest Tibbs on Bass (Wow), Chad Wackerman (double wow) on Drums (and I don't remember the keyboard players name also wow) at the Ridgefield Playhouse in CT around 2006. An amazing show in a small theater in rural CT. Also saw him at Toads place New Haven, CT and Mall of the Americas in Minnesota during my college days. All great shows and I shook hands with Allan at the Bar. His hands are like 100 year old grape vines! No wonder he can do things on the guitar no one else could even attempt.

      The sound is more from his choice of processing than the guitar itself. He was the best at sound design for the electric guitar.

      @jfo3000 Рік тому +1

      Buy he does have a synth pickup on that guitar...
      At times it sounds like he's blending synth and guitar tones, or maybe it's pure synth? Who knows? He was THE sound designer for guitar!

    • @lex.cordis
      @lex.cordis 7 місяців тому

      The guitar barely has an effect on the sound. The pickups are important, however. Like it has already been said, it is mostly his signal processing. Effect pedals, rack effect processors, synth guitar pickup blend with guitar sound, amp, EQ, etc.

      It helps I feel to see improvised fusion like this: we can‘t physically travel to strange worlds, hang out on moon rocks and float by shooting stars, but by listening to improvisation like this you get to experience other worlds‘ landscapes. You get this with Miles Davis for example, but to my knowledge no one has done fusion jazz to date as well as Holdsworth. It‘s less like listening to music as it is going on extraplanetary space explorations.

    • @jfo3000

      Just listen and go for the ride...don't try to figure it out.
      Totally let go of all expectations.
      On the other hand, you can listen to, his I.O.U. album over and over for two weeks. Don't listen to anything else.
      Next, do the same thing with his "Sixteen Men of Tain" album.
      Then you will start to "get it".
      Then proceed to do the same with the rest of his albums, chronologically, to experience his growth. Hard to say he grew after hearing I.O.U., because he was already the best, The Big Boss. Consider it more of him exploring and expanding.
