That you David for this absolutely gorgeous cover of AH’s beautiful tune. As a longtime fan of Allan since the early 70s it wonderful to see that his genius is finally being shared beyond his guitar playing base of fans. He was so much more than an incredibly gifted and visionary guitarist. A unique composer of deep and complex harmonies as well as sound designer. And lastly, I’ve been a long time PMG fan as well and saw you on three tours. Thanks you for bringing light into this world of ( to often ) pain and suffering. Push the art pedal to the metal.
Thanks! .. the process of creating this piece was a "labour of love" .. as was this newly-released Sting cover, hope you enjoy :-) th-cam.com/video/_9nYm4m6pxI/w-d-xo.html
Ha, thanks! I was trying to figure out how to recreate the solo and I thought - "I'll sing it !!!". It's an emotional solo, & fortunately for me, not delivered at 1000 mph like a lot of Allan's are :-)
@@snuppssynthchannel Singing classic guitar solos is my new hobby .. not happening on this track, but in case you missed it - th-cam.com/video/_9nYm4m6pxI/w-d-xo.html
Love this track. Great surprise to see the sweeping views of the iconic Ribblehead viaduct in the video. Obviously influenced by your Yorkshire roots! 😀
Well mate, thanks. The story is that I was asked to recreate one of Allan's songs, so I did it all with me voice. And methodology and patience.. And, importantly, Allan is from BRADFORD !! That's why I included a bit of Yorkshire in the visuals ..
@@LeoAramDownsMusic My level of English is worse than terrible. I had to google the word "woah". LOL. And I have found this: www.grammarly.com/blog/whoa-woah/
Hi David, what a nice interpretation and tribute! Also you managed to bring this tune into a more contemporary context, well done! Would love to find out how you did that terrific solo part :)
Hi David, that was a nice version! I run an AH fanpage on Facebook with some 15 000 followers, and posted this video. I also posted it in the "Unreal Allan Holdsworth" Facebook group. If you're doing an album of Allan's music, I strongly suggest you join that group, where you will have a chance to connect with Allan's family, friends and fellow musicians, as well as interact with thousands of Allan's fans. Allan's fans tend to be guitarists, but they do appreciate excellent musicianship on all instruments. Manifesto are releasing an archival live album by Allan in March, and it would perhaps be wise to plan your release so it doesn't get drowned out. Good luck!
Pure gold. Allan is proud of you!
Thanks :-) - I'd like to think so
Beautiful!!!! Just fantastic.

Sorry, such a good idea to do this with choir, and very perfect produced, but the solo part is horrible to me....
Haha!! Well, Antonio, you are entitled to your opinion, which I must say is in the minority of opinions. I appreciate your honesty, thank you
Amazing!
