The Best Allan Holdsworth Guitar Solos

Allan Holdsworth rethought the electric guitar as a horn-like, legato voice, gliding through wide-interval scales with barely a picked note. Players from Eddie Van Halen to Tosin Abasi named him the most advanced soloist they had heard, and his harmonic language still sounds like it comes from somewhere else.
