Allan Holdsworth
445,660 plays (40,792 listeners)
He is known for his unusual technique, which is filled with unusual chord voicings and legato melodies of great harmonic sophistication. Many guitarists, including Eddie Van Halen, Yngwie Malmsteen and Steve Vai have lauded him as a master. He has also been a pioneer in the use of guitar synthesizers. Holdsworth was also Frank Zappa’s favorite guitarist.
