It sounds not so much like an Allan Holdsworth album, but more like a band brought together to sound like the Mahvishnu Orchestra. And they do a pretty good job of it. The opening track, Good Clean Filth is the most Mahavishnu-like on the album, and it helps that sound to have Narada Michael Walden on drums. Elsewhere, Holdsworth's violin also adds to the MO type sound. A few excellent acoustic pieces also showcase Holdsworth's skills. And while his distinctive compositional style is not yet developed here, the songs are interesting enough. BTW, the Epic CD I have from 1990 has five bonus tracks, alternate takes of some of the songs on the album, totalling over twenty minutes.I know it doesn't sound like classic Holdsworth, but I like it more than most of his Synthaxe works. progarchives.com  PersonelAcoustic Guitar – Allan Holdsworth (tracks: A2, A4, B3) Bass – Alphonse Johnson* Drums – Narada* Engineer – Rudy Van Gelder Guitar – Allan Holdsworth Piano – Alan Pasqua Producer – Creed Taylor Violin – Allan Holdsworth (tracks: B2)  Scans  1985 - Metal Fatigue (With I.O.U.)

Great guitar techniques and solo's backed up by excellent instrumentation works from drummer Chad Wackerman and bassist Gary Willis, to name a few. A very moody album, with an overall light and cheerful feeling to it, though the music is also serious and complex at the same time. The compositions are solid and creative with great playing throughout. Holdsworth's guitar is not too dominant, but his solo's are especially notable throughout and the keyboards featured on this album adds a colorful and dreamy atmosphere that suits the elegant, yet appealing music extremely well. The production is clear and gives you all those details in a perfectly fine way. The only bad thing about this album is the painfully short playing-time at 37 minutes. It should have been at least 10 minutes longer, hehe! Sadly, it's not, but that doesn't stop me from giving this album 5 stars!Overall, a colorful and interesting Jazz-Fusion release with clear 80's influences, but that does not drag this album down. Not in the slightest! Jazz-Rock and/or Holdsworth fans should definetly not miss this one at all costs. I'll give this one a perfect 5 star, or at least 4.5 stars!Song highlights: "Metal Fatigue", "Devil Take the Hindmost" and "The Un-Merry Go Round". The rest is excellent as well, though "Panic Station" and "In The Mystery" might not appeal to everyone. Highly recommended! progarchives.com  PersonelBass – Gary Willis (tracks: B1), Jimmy Johnson (5) (tracks: A1, A2, A3, A4, B2) Drums – Chad Wackerman (tracks: A1, A2, A3, A4), Gary Husband (tracks: B1), Mac Hine (tracks: B2) Engineer – Biff Vincent , Dan Humann , Dennis McKay , Gary Wagner (2) , Robert Feist Guitar, Producer, Engineer – Allan Holdsworth Keyboards – Alan Pasqua (tracks: B1) Management – Gary Lo Conti Photography By – Robin D'Arcy Vocals – Paul Korda (tracks: B2), Paul Williams (10) (tracks: A1, A4)  Scans  1986 - Atavachron Год выпуска: 1986 Лейбл: Enigma Records/ST-73203 Страна-производитель: US Продолжительность: 37:06Треклист: A1.

Is it the incredible nerdiness of the cover, which has a painting depicting Allan Holdsworth in a Star Trek-like uniform, holding his new toy, a Synthaxe MIDI controller? It can't be the music, which is similar in structure to most of Holdsworth's releases, and as usually, expertly performed. I'll admit, I have to be in the right mood to listen to a Holdsworth album. His compositional style, which consists of chords that sometimes sound strung together in random fashion, is demanding for the listener, and if you are not in the correct frame of mind, often tedious.Nonetheless, if you have the energy to follow the songs, it can be quite rewarding. Holdsworth's songs take you where no other guitarist goes, and his fluid soloing over difficult to master chord progressions is just amazing. progarchives.com  Personel- Allan Holdsworth / guitar, synthaxe guitar synthesizer - Billy Childs / keyboards (2-5) - Gary Husband / drums (1-4-6) - Jimmy Johnson / bass (1 to 6) - Rowanne Mark / vocals (7) - Alan Pasqua / keyboards (3-4-6) - Chad Wackerman / drums (3-7) - Tony Williams / drums  Scans  1987 - Sand Год выпуска: 1987 Лейбл: Relativity/88561-8152-1 Страна-производитель: US Продолжительность: 35:22Треклист: A1.

Main difference is there are only one full size classic Holdsworth's guitar composition ("Pud Wud", with Alan Pasqua's great keyboards on it). All others are very experimental, and the listener will be surprised because many of them don't sound as guitar- based jazz-fusion at all. The reason is Holdsworth uses Synthaxe guitar on this album. It is device combining usual electric guitar with breath controller and synthesizer. So, beside playing as with usual electric guitar, musician has the possibility to use it for getting unusual sounds as from sax or keyboards. So, in many compositions you can hear keyboards-like sound which in reality is a sound of Holdsworth guitar.As a result, this album contains very different music, only part of which is fusion. Many other sounds and rhythm structures gave to the music more experimental character. Main problem for listener possibly is that being a highly experimental in sense of using new instrument technologies, too often music itself is placed on the second plan. And sometimes you will feel as you are listening a demonstration of new device abilities.The musicians team are great, and Holsdsworth talent is used in his full , so album still became a nice work. Possibly, more attractive for new sound searchers, than for Holdsworth's guitar sound fans. progarchives.com  Personel- John England / Mac computer - Allan Holdsworth / guitar, synthaxe - Gary Husband / drums - Jimmy Johnson / bass - Alan Pasqua / keyboards - Biff Vincent / Octopad bass - Chad Wackerman / drums Producer – Allan Holdsworth  Scans  1989 - Secrets Год выпуска: 1985, 1989 Лейбл: Intima Records/7 73328-1 Страна-производитель: US Продолжительность: 37:32Треклист: A1.

Each cut holds a part of the strange alien path Allan Holdsworth takes the listener on, a ride with many turns of jazz style and phrases that seem to have been passed-over by other guitarists. His unstoppable cohorts Jimmy Johnson (bass), Alan Pasqua and Steve Hunt (keys), Vinnie Colaiuta (drums) and an appearance by Chad Wackerman make this an extra special record and Holdsworth's playing is at a creative and tonal high. 'City Nights' is a perfect opener, a tasty hors d'oeuvre that sets the pace. Though sentiment is not always Holdsworth's strongest point, the title cut that follows is a beautiful tone poem of atonality with a nice vocal and lyric by Rowanne Mark. The strange and delightful '54 Duncan Terrace' moves along gingerly and sounds like a rainy day as it drips and drops with new jazz colors and thoughts of times past. The solo platform 'Joshua' shows great pyrotechnics, and 'Spokes' moves well with odd meters. The heart-pumper 'Peril Premonition', however, is the highlight on this record, turning and lurching with unspeakable polycentric circles and pure jazz-rock magic. One of this master's best and among fusion's most impressive moments. progarchives.com  PersonelArtwork By [Design] – Lisa Sutton Artwork By [Typography] – Jeannine Pinkerton Bass – Jimmy Johnson (5) (tracks: 1 to 6) Drums – Vinnie Colaiuta (tracks: 1 to 6) Engineer [Additional] – Biff Vincent, Charlie Watts (2), Dan Humann Guitar, Mixed By – Allan Holdsworth Lyrics By – Rowanne Mark (tracks: 2, 8) Mastered By – Bernie Grundman Mixed By – Robert Feist Music By – Allan Holdsworth (tracks: 2, 3, 5, 8), Chad Wackerman (tracks: 7), Gary Husband (tracks: 1), Steve Hunt (4) (tracks: 4, 6) Photography – Ed Colver Producer – Allan Holdsworth Synthaxe – Allan Holdsworth (tracks: 2, 5, 8)  Доп. информацияLabel states 'Manufactured in the USA' Barcode and Other Identifiers Barcode: 0 1877-73328-1 1 Matrix / Runout (Side A:): SRC 7-73328-1-A-Z2 Matrix / Runout (Side B:): SRC 7-73328-1-b  Scans Совместно с Александром (aka nptoz)принято решение объединить наши раздачи Алана в одну и добавить 1985 - Metal Fatigue и 1976 - Velvet Darkness, поэтому просим поглотить его раздачи Allan Holdsworth - Atavachron и Allan Holdsworth - Sand, за что ему большая благодарность
