VIDEO: Allan Holdsworth -" IOU " - Live at Frankfurt Jazz Festival, Frankfurt, Germany, February, 1986 [DVD]




This concert was broadcast on German television. Allan is seen playing his Ibanez AH-10 guitar along with the Synth-Axe guitar synthesizer controller.

One of my all time favorite DVDs. Holdworth and Husband together can't be topped (OK, maybe Cobham with McLaughlin, but that's it!). I remember seeing IOU in the early 80's in NYC and remember hearing a bunch of guitar wankers complaining that Husband "over played." What a bunch of poofters ;) I always thought of him as Tony Williams on steroids.


Thanks to MAGMA2

Beste Fred,

Super post, vind het echt een historisch waardevolle DVD; toen al zo ver zijn tijd vooruit.

Ook interessante links over bewustzijn heb je toegevoegd.
Opnieuw veel dank!
