- Опубликовано: 23 июл 2024
- The Next Allan Holdsworth??? Introducing Thomas Dawson, the 27-year-old fusion guitar virtuoso. With influences ranging from Allan Holdsworth, Scott Henderson, to traditional influences like John Coltrane and Charlie Parker, Thomas has honed his craft to become the most promising young fusion guitarists of our time.
Despite his undeniable talent, Thomas has remained relatively unknown until now. But with the release of his debut album "Animal Situation." he is finally getting the recognition he deserves. His music is a blend of complex harmonies, blistering solos, and intricate rhythms that showcase his technical proficiency as well as his musicality.
Many are already comparing Thomas to the legendary Allan Holdsworth, and it's not hard to see why, but he is clearly not trying to imitate Holdsworth. He has created his own voice on the instrument using the same harmonic material.
In this interview, we'll take a closer look at Thomas Dawson's music, exploring his unique sound and the techniques that make him such a talented guitarist. Whether you're a fan of fusion music or simply appreciate great guitar playing, you won't want to miss this exciting new talent. Join us as we delve into the world of Thomas Dawson, the next big thing in fusion guitar.

Great player! But Allan would be the first to tell him to not worry about being the next Allan Holdsworth and focus on being the first and greatest Thomas Dawson! :-)
i agree with what you just said, but i think that thomas, would agree with holdswoth more and i think, from hearing him play, that he is more about finding his own voice, which i personally cant wait to hear :)
Spot on, I hate titles to videos like this because now as soon as he starts playing I'm comparing him to Holdsworth instead of focusing on him as an individual player.
@@ShadowhandofDune You should work on not being swayed so much by thumbnails!
Did you watch the entire video?
@@jonasbylund8802 you sound like somebody who has watched the entire video! ;-)
One of the most inspirational interviews ever! Great player! Thanks
Phenomenal player, and what I love about the very BEST modern cats, is also how modest and not assholish at all they are. Props to you Thomas.
Hey there, Sven. Thanks for taking the time to write a comment!
Nice interview and great to hear Thomas. He’s a great player and seems like a very humble chill person.
I couldn’t have said it better myself, Chris!
This is a fantastic interview and content. Far and beyond. Thank you!
Than YOU, Tri!
Thomas Dawson is an incredible guitar player.
The entire interview is fantastic. Thank you for this.

Definitely!
Thomas clearly has his own thing going. Great interview. Thanks! Kind regards, Daniel. 🤙🏼
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much, Daniel!
Thank you for introducing me to this guitarist. I've briefly reviewed some of his work. I get the idea that I've got a lot to learn from him. Cheers.
Fantastic interview! I learned a lot and I really enjoyed checking out Thomas' music. New fan here!
So glad to hear that, Ray! Thank you for supporting this channel via your comment and watching the video.
I REALLY enjoyed this.
Thanks for posting
Glad you enjoyed it
Wow! Very very cool!! Thank you both for this! I am off to look up Animal Situation!!
Try iTunes
I think this guy is just a great example of high achievement. We all can learn from his winning small battles leading to his winning wars. Amazing and down to earth. I wish I had his attitude when I was younger.
Thank you so much, Alden it’s great to have your support!
Great Interview. Thank you for sharing.
Good man yourself, Matt!
Really good interview and great player
Great to know that greatness still inspires greatness to keep music moving ever-expanding. Stretching and reaching for the untouchable muse, it's all about having fun in the end. Bravo.
Great playing Thomas. Bright future for sure. Inspiring
❤❤❤ man thanks for brightening my day... Tasty player for sure.
Great player thanks for grabbing the torch..looking forward to this cat I see him as Thomas Dawson a stand alone player everyone says no one will be Holdsworth of course not everyone is individual accept that and grow its still over my head but isnt that great I wont ever be bored at guitar cause there is so much to learn. Glad to see this thanks...
Hey Ron! Thanks for taking the time to write this comment. Did you see the video in its entirety by the way?
Mind blowing I’m a veteran guitar player , it’s nice to see young guys taking on these old style and building on it and taking it further than anyone has before
Great job buddy
I will be watching you evolve
Cheers 🎉Ian

he sounds great, I like the phrasing! I enjoy this whole crop of players, myself included, who have adapted so many of Allan's concepts
You my friend have a great attitude
I’m listening to the album, fantastic. Great everything, wow!
exceptional phrasing and scale control, he is so talented and is so pleasant to listen to him.
Went to community college with this kid. He smoked everyone and everything he ever played on. Super cool and humble kid. Glad to see him getting some love
Not easy to be a Young Gun , after Allan .... But this dude said IT exactly how IT should be said - "If people can hear Allan in my music , Ii marked me proud , cause Allan is the greatest guitar player EVER lived on planet Earth". I like this dude,-
YESSSSSSSSSSSS! 😍
Brilliant player with a brilliant musical mind. He’s young, wide eyed and humble. That is in short supply these days. Thanks for introducing me to someone new to enjoy and learn from.
Couldn't agree more! Thank you so much for your comment, Ray!
@sven ols above says the exact opposite, and I would agree with him. A lot of the best players are modest and not assholish as he says. Are you both right??

Very nice content on this channel. Very nice indeed.
Thank you very much!
For the longest time Allan was only appreciated by that relatively small group of aficionados who were lucky enough to discover with him and truly connected with his genius. It is so pleasing to finally see more and more young guitarists who are clearly influenced by his multi faceted creativity and technique. More and more guitarists are building on his genius and in time we will fully understand the huge and indelible legacy he has left on the art of guitar. I am old enough to have bought Igginbottom when it first came out and Allan’s music was the soundtrack to my life from then on. RIP Maestro🎸🤘🏻❤️

Outstanding interview! First time hearing Thomas. Top Notch inspirational playing just like Holdsworth. Love how He mentioned the basics being strong and going from there. 12:00 Great hearing His progression of the greats that influenced His playing. Gonna have to check out His band animal situation! Thank You 😁
22:55 love what He said about learning the neck in Your own way. Just like Allan said about his abbrev. Thats what ive done as a costco worker playing with my amazing wife ruclips.net/video/kasj-Q-R4t4/видео.html

A new torch carrier of sorts. Thanks for turning us onto great artists. Definitely gonna check Thomas Dawson out forthwith!
His suggestions, born of useful questions, were excellent and I couldn't help but take some notes for further analyses 🖖🏼🇦🇺
Hey Justin, this is fantastic! You actually took notes?! I sincerely appreciate it and I’m actually quite flattered! I’m sure Thomas would be as well. I hope you have subscribe and hit the notification bell as you are the kind of person I would like to make videos for and more people like yourself!
@@streetwiseguitar5113 yeah, I have a wee notebook for little musical gems. It's always something salient; different words around familiar concepts bring new light or understanding, we all access our minds via different avenues perhaps.
I Definitely take notes of sound theoretical synopses/examples that strike me as well crafted. Moreover, I know the fretboard so I can transcribe what I hear & see.
Indeed I am subscribed and will always support you however/best I can. Yours is a great channel, your content like Rick Beato is presented clearly, with humour, but theoretical exactedness 👌🏼
Cheers.
Phenomenal guitarist, excellent band, I love the way they improvise!
Thank you for your good spirit and wonderful comment!
Excellent!!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Holy Cow !! What an insane player !
Bingo!
What a player, so good
Thank you so much for your kind words
You kill him with the comparition to Allan. He´s 27 and really good but Allan was a force of nature, revolutionary and fresh. Not a coppy or a guy with just great insane chops. This cat is yet to find his own true voice, and some times that takes to stop listening to youre idols and go in a different path. I'll keap it in my radar im sure he will acomplish great things ahead.
In fairness, I don't think I killed him....unless by "kill" you meant; conducting a great interview, eliciting amazing answers, did an amazing job editing it, did a fantastic job of availing you to an amazing guitarist you've never heard of, then I hit it out of the fookin PARK!
@@streetwiseguitar5113😂 I love your turn of phrase.
He's a great player in his own right - following the chord movement(s). Very nice. I'm sure Chris Poland would be smiling upon hearing Thomas too, at least that's partially what I heard. 😊
absolutely, i thought the same about Chris Poland , ha!
Chris is incredible, really unique voice on the instrument and I've only heard maybe one or two players on youtube closely adapting his style
I don't hear Chris Poland in his playing. I hear a lot of Holdsworth which is kind of boring, because there are already too many Holdsworth copies!
@@alexfadista Give a listen to Chris' work with OHM, Peace Sells and just about anything he's done recently, and you'll most likely hear what I intended to convey. Chris is not a simply a product of his influences and neither is Thomas.
@@WorldvsTruth I know pretty well Chris Poland, I love Ohm, his solo albums etc. but I really can't hear Chris in Thomas' playing. He's clearly an Holdsworth fan. And it's kind of boring, I wish I heard at least just a glimpse of Poland in his playing, would be kind of refreshing because he's quite ignored among fusion players. Holdsworth is great but guitarists need to stop listening to him and praising him like he's kind of a god.
Great to see 4K views.
Thanks for this interview!!! you're like the Mike Varney of our times!! I'm very excited to hear this "7 string metalish" music Thomas is cooking.....i love chaotic death metal and holdsworthian chaotic death would be amazing and exciting to head for sure. Thomas's music is very reminiscent of holdworth, but is not him and you can tell, and jazz is a very reminiscent based style like many others, metal for sure, country, blues, all the latin american rithms...and the list goes on and on...i think that what i'm trying to say is that in music there is allways development from what came before and the music that i personally enjoy the most is that music that tells me "this i took from the beatles, this i took from morbid angel, this i took from facundo cabral, this from Los prisioneros, etc..." so you can make that game of archeollogy with it,.... i enjoy that,......anyways,...thanks again for the upload 👍 and to Bret for highlighting Thomas
Francisco! Thank you for that very astute comment! You are 100% correct. The hilarious part about all of this is that the haters never comment on how Gary Moore, Buddy Guy, Chuck Berry, Eric Clapton, etc. are all using the same exact language. At any rate, thanks again for the compliment!
Holy eff yes!!
Great player, good interview, and he seems like a nice fellow. I’m glad to have been introduced to some new talent. Clearly (based on the comments) folks aren’t too enamored with the choice of wording in the video’s title, and I can see why, but at least it was addressed to some extent in the video.
My ear for harmony is too remedial to fully appreciate the genius of AH or this guy, for that matter, let alone to make any intelligent distinction between them. I just like this style of music.
Thank you for your amazing comment! You actually watched the video and realized that in fact, the thumbnail is asking a question that Thomas so eloquently answers. Everybody who got their knickers, bunched and wedged in their crack are people who worship Allan Holdsworth like a deity and/or couldn’t play their way out of a paper bag and worship allan as a deity.🤣
I hope you subscribe and hit the notification bell because you’re the kind of subscriber I’m looking for. Thanks again
One thing I took to heart (when I spent the afternoon with Holdsworth) even improvising, hear in your head,"WHAT".....you're gonna play!
"BEFORE YOU PLAY IT!"
Bro, Yes!
Derryl Gabel is also a great guitarist and a follower of Allan's
SO good to hear & see younger players playing with both fire, finesse, and FEEL! (Especially when TikTok and RUclips is filled with 'shredders' who think bending strings is for old people - they'll rather sound like a runaway sequencer, it seems).
🙏
Great video and what a beast is Thomas. amazing player! BUT with all do respect sir i have to mention to Charles Altura as The one who deserves the title of being the "Next AH", i was fortune to saw him with Chick in 2014, it was imposible to me not to noticed the strong influential and conection with Allan. i never heard someone else to have the same level of improvisation and fluity like Allan but without copying the sound or superficial cliches. I read in some post that He is the "young geezer" that Allan wanted to play on his album "in case he croaked". it would be awesome if he could make an interview with you but i know he is a bit out of social media. Thank you for this kind of videos!
I tried to get in touch with Charles for an interview… Never heard from him. I think it would be great!
Liked the album, listening to it a lot, actually. Also liked the mature way he discussed his influences. Allan isn't with us anymore, and Thomas is going to take that school of playing forward. If, of course he is able to stay with it. The world has never been an easy place for artists. I like the elegant brooding in his compositions. As he matures as a composer (and I don't mean that to sound patronising, promise!), the Holsworthy traits will evolve into something else that we all dig. Intelligent, exciting stuff with grace and dexterity.
Fantastic comment! Thank you for supporting this channel by watching. Please subscribe because it would be great to have someone as astute as yourself a part of this community!
Although much of the content is over my head I appreciate both the interview and the concepts shared. Excellent work. McKinney Texas... isn't that where Andy Timmons lives?
Hey Brian! Yes Andy Timmons I believe lives nearby because his kid takes guitar lessons at the same place Thomas works out. Thank you so much for supporting this channel and I hope you become a subscriber! They are going to be all sorts of videos coming from here!
There are many many Holdsworth sound alikes but few do something different with it...this Guy is very very good.
Tim Miller is at the Top a long with Bill Connors
I could say that there were improvisers before. Alex Machacek, Alex Sill, Richard Hallebeek, TJ Helmerich, Brett Garsed, Scott McGill, etc. But this Thomas Dawson guy is amazing. Sooner or later, he surely joins the lineup with them. Thanks for introducing him to us!
Nedwin, he is a far better improviser than any of those guys! That's the thing that really separates him from them!
need a link to all his various channels. thx :)
He has none. He does not do social media!
I love these comments .
Have you ever seen the yelp reviews for national parks or waterfalls or the Grand Canyon ? It’s pretty great stuff
We need some more performance video
Unfortunately, there is none. He isn’t even on social media.
Thanks great interview ! No link to him, channel or website ??
Sorry Arnold. He doesn’t do social media! That’s probably why he’s so normal. Lol so happy you enjoyed the interview. It really took a lot of work to put together!
Is there a CD or is it on bandcamp. I need this music in my life.
For right now it's on Spotify.
@@streetwiseguitar5113I don't do Spotify for obvious reasons. Will investigate once it's available on a more favourable platform or media.
@@Truthinshredding1 Obvious reasons? Because it's such a crappy deal for musicians I'm guessing...
@@effsixteenblock50 bandcamp? No much better deal if you manage it correctly.
he's on itunes!
Hey Dude, Here's a couple new (to you - maybe) Brecker solos. I'm an old fart so these came out when I was a teenager. Not saying to learn the solo - just pure love. The first album is called Rainbow by Will Boulware. Couple of long fade out solos. 70s. The first one is "I like it." Great MB R&B solo. Terrific. There's another on the album, but I don't remember the name. Like 5 minute fade out solos.
Second one is someday my prince will come by ben Sidran. Classic MB solo. One of his very best. You really ought to put that one into your heart. Especially the first chorus.
Love your playing. I'm a straight ahead guy. I was 15 the first time I heard Charlie Parker. Not him, but a band called Supersax. Parker solos transcribed for a full sax section. I was a classical clarinetist. Sax in the big band, but nothing made my heart sing like Charlie Parker. I remember listening to Supersax and I remember telling my 15 year old self that I found love that very day. Keep shredding. Huge fan.
Hey Rick! Thanks for taking the time to write all of this and so happy you enjoyed the video!
Wow what a talent!! Where can i find his videos?
He has none! And he doesn't do social media which is why he's so damn normal! Lol
@@streetwiseguitar5113 haha then ill wait for some new music.
Love this guy I think and hope Allan left behind a style and feel that others take on board and even develop further on o me I love the sound of note patterns that have an indirect and less obvious relation to the underlying changes andy(bob)yates
True I thought about blues when I said that lol ,theres guys like Scott Henderson ,greg Howe and some others that have obvious influence from Holdsworth but they sound like themselves . That being said it is interesting how this guitarist figured out these intervals and scales that are unnatural to guitar and more relevant to Sax and Keys ,as a fan of The Holdsworth Legacy if I stumbled into Venue and i heard this Guitarist I would enjoy it and might ask questions after the show, but of course I'd know who he studied thoroughly . Another thing is I'd have to hear his compositions , that might be a different story.. if it makes a person happy keep doing what you love ,there is a lot of young people that never heard this approach including Jazz and fusion students and performers. you'll blow there minds lol
Are you sure you watched the ENTIRE interview?? His music is available on iTunes (which he says in the interview.) he also says where he learned all of that stuff from…
he's got great taste in more ways than one. i like that dbz shirt during the start of the video.
;-)
Fantastic player. Love tour content - have you heard of Charles Altura? Would love to see you talk to him as well.
If you know how to get in touch with Charles, I would love to do an interview with him! I wrote him, but I hear that he doesn’t do social media at all. Get me in touch with him, and will do it!
Occasionally he does an Instagram post.
@@streetwiseguitar5113yes you need Charles ❤. Maybe check his tour promoter?
You also need Brian Sheu.
Love Altura. Pity there ain't as much recorded material of Altura as there are of his jazz contemporaries
Do you have any albums out? I would be the first to buy it I really love your playing Thomas.
Go to iTunes and look up “animal situation.“
How do I buy the album? I'd do it right now, but I don't use Spotify, don't see it available in Amazon (would hate it in MP3 anyway), and don't see it available anywhere else. This style is my favorite and this discovery has me totally captivated, so I don't want to go too long without purchasing Thomas' music and listening a lot.
I believe it's only available on Spotify.
I sincerely hope that Thomas Dawson goes on to become the next Thomas Dawson.
Ummm I would say that's exactly what he's doing. If you took the time to hear the video in its entirety and you would've better understood that! Maybe go back and have another lesson?
JFC...
or the next best ? 🤔
@@streetwiseguitar5113 I don't care so much about what HE is doing. YOU are the guy who decided to use that title and that thumbnail, which was a conscious choice on your part. As a self-proclaimed streetwise, you must have known the provocative effect this would have, so it must have been your intention to stir up controversy. Was it really "streetwise"? Well, you sure got a lot of views and "engagement" that way. I do hope it was worth it for yourself and Mr Dawson. I just keep thinking about all the times an artist has been hailed as "The new Dylan", most of which has effectively served to ruin the artist's career. In the same way I enjoy "Truth In Shredding", I also enjoy "Truth In Advertising". So I am afraid that I won't be returning to your channel.
Good interview. Interesting that at slower tempos he picks exactly like Josh Meader.
And let’s not forget that Josh picks exactly like John Schofield.!!! did you ever see the interview I did with Josh? It’s in my video cachet have a look.
@@streetwiseguitar5113 yes
Do we need the next A. Holdsworth ? or Jimi Hendrix ? Coltrane ? Brecker ? Miles ?
Of course not and regardless there can never be!
Sadly guitar commentators are one dimensional and can only look for the “next xxxxx”.
@@Tmidiman sadly you seem to have not watched the entire video.
@@renakmans3521 of course! Thomas myself and lots of other people totally agree with you. Remember, the thumbnail has "??" And Thomas answers that question beautifully within the video.
You need to watch the video in its entirety… Otherwise you simply will not understand the thumbnail
Very nice, thanks for introducing me to another Nu Fusion virtuoso, Thomas Dawson. Don' know if he'll be the next AH, but he certainly joins the ranks of IMHO equally off the charts Jazz Rock improvisors such as Tim Miller, Ben Eunson, Mateo Mancuso. 9:09 - Did he say Major add flat 6 + flat 3? I don't recall Allan Holsdworth mentioning that one.
Did you have an opportunity to watch the whole video?
@@streetwiseguitar5113 Not yet, but that very first opening solo speaks volumes as to Dawson's abilities as an improvisor. Looking forward to watching the whole things as soon as I have some spare time, I have a huge list of 'watch later' videos. Thanks for the reply and thanks fro sharing.
@@teelurizzo8542 did you get to the rest of the video yet? Please let me know how you liked it
@@streetwiseguitar5113 Hey, man just finished watching it to the end. A really great player indeed, I'm gonna check out his music, thanks for sharing - you yourself are a great player too. Thanks again fro the great interview. Cheers from Brazil.
where can we listen to his music?
iTunes
What is Thomas’ web page if we want to get hold of him for lessons?
ahhh Ryan my friend... you have to watch ALL of the video lol!!! Seriously though, his address is in the video. Now go find it!
@@streetwiseguitar5113 lol gotcha
There is no social media at present.
Incredible musician, it must be tough to make a living playing this music though nowadays. As Gordon Beck once said “you don’t get paid by the note.”
He doesn’t have to make a living playing this music. He gigs and teaches. Totally agree with you. Incredible musician and an incredible human being.
@@streetwiseguitar5113 not him, in general about making a living. It can’t be easy, but if it is more power.
Great musician. As much as I admire Allan Holdsworth, I must admit it’s really good to see that he wasn’t “one off” as many experts say. Another example of a guitar player who is mastering such a multi dimensional scaling is Alex Sill. Pretty incredible musician too.
I would definitely not put him and Alex in the same category. To my ears Alex is more Lich oriented. Thomas actually understands Allan Holdsworth‘s language. Thanks to the fact that Brett Stine codified it for us all. Did you see the interview with Brett Stine?
@@streetwiseguitar5113 No brother. I have not seen this interview. I will search for it. Thanks 😀
The only thing I may have picked up from Allan is some whammy bar stuff through the years.
Somebody said I sounded like Allan one time, though I knew I sounded 99% Lukather, 0,9 % Carlton
and 0,1% Allan😂
Keep up the good work👍
Where is his RUclips channel
He doesn’t have one. He’s not on social media at this point. You can find this music on iTunes.
i love how back in 90's NO ONE was touching Allan. Nowadays its like everyone plays like him! That says a lot
You know, Jesus I'll tell you something… There are lots of people who can play transcriptions of Alan Holdsworth, and yes… I remember a time when nobody played his transcriptions. But like everything, shit gets figured out...yet there are probably only for people who can actually improvise with his language... And I'm talking about on this entire globe.
@@streetwiseguitar5113 agreed! it took me 15 years of guitar playing to mimic some of Allan's phrasing and over 25 years to be able to construct a solo of mine based on his vocabulary. My point was that for the last decade musicianship had such an enormous progress that make even Allan's playing accesible!!! And this is very promising
There were a few players in the 90s that sounded like Allan
@@jason698 Some sounded "like" him, but none could play with any kind of harmonic density that made any sense.
@@facepalmjesus1608 if you like this interview, look at the interview before this. The one I did with Brett Stine. That's absolutely imperative watching! If you want to learn about Alan Holdsworth, the time is now and there is the opportunity for you to dive deep into his stuff like you never could prior. Look for that video you will not be disappointed.
Would've been nice if you included his social media links !
Guess what… He's not on social media! That's why he's so damn normal!
Yall need to check out - derryl gabel, marhsall harrison, and tim miller. No one is another allan but many have came close to his sound and evolved it to thier own style/tech and these names are a perfect example. Like tim millers 2-1-2 technique and marshalls swybryd picking.
Hi there, Blaine. I wrote two transcription books for Marshall, and edited his flagship swybryd book. I have the best interview of him on my channel! Look at my video cachet I'm sure you'll enjoy it! Tim Miller is a brilliant guitarist. I also have a sneaking suspicion you didn't watch the entire video. If you had you would've seen/heard Thomas address the title that the thumbnail asks. I would recommend you go back to it and definitely check out the Marshall video.
Alex Machacek
@@user-cg6qf6xd4d nnnnope
I hear some John McLaughlin as well.
so a C Messian third mode for a two five in C? I wish he would have done an example. Also the tabs seemed off to me but maybe that was just me
Great interview though I forgot to say and great player.
If you write me at Streetwiseguitar@gmail.com I would be more than happy to send you the video of him playing over the 251.
Sure we do! But we already have Pat Metheny! Everybody knows Pat,but many don't realize that Pat is even a better player that they realize! Pat is just so smooth and flawless in his playing that the Music passes right on by!
You're spot on about Pat, he's an incredible player and improviser !
Pat Matheny is absolutely incredible and probably one of the greatest improvisers to ever have lived. Rick Beato gave me a recording of him when he was 29 and it is absolute perfection.
@@streetwiseguitar5113 Metheny is not the great innovator that allan holdsworth was. Holdsworth redefined how to play guitar. And his chordal compositions were in uncharted territory.
He's a genius.
Can't quite say the same about Metheny.
Pat is insane, agreed.
@@pobinr I must disagree with you. PM created a SOUND and WAY of playing (legato) that didn't exist before him. He also created compositions in a style that didn't exist before him. He's every bit as hvy as AH. Just a diff. genre
Lovely! Check out Matteo Mancuso, Tim Miller, and Josh Meader
Matteo is straight crazy.. Josh is off tha scale ... need to check out Tim Miller !
Matteo has some recent stuff from the NAMM show here... he is amazing.

Good to see 6.6K views 😅
Is he going to be a brilliant fusion guitarist? I would say yes.
Is he able to pull off all the Holdsworth-esque legato stylings? Also yes.
A bright future ahead.
Thank you Dave!
Don't take this the wrong way, the guy's awesome. But he wants to sound like his favorite guitar player. He won't hear his own voice that way, he'll sound like someone trying to sound like someone else. And IMHO, he does. But nothing in life is permanent. Where Thomas is on his musical journey is a phenomenal spot to be when he stops trying to emulate others.
Anyone wanting to go down the rabbit hole of guitar scales and arpeggios, like into the entire warren really deeply 😂 will benefit from buying - Arpeggio and Scale Resources - A Guitar Encyclopaedia by Rich Cochrane (Big Noise Publishing, London, UK).
I hope it is not 'naughty' for me to recommend such a title here. I just find it incredibly useful from a harmonic theory - guitar fretboard geometry perspective. It has all the scales - Pentatonic to Octatonic and beyond with scale and arpeggio delineations and detailed notes on usage with respect to functional and non-functional harmony, superimposition etc.
It mentions the Holdsworth scales for example and really expands upon one's vocabulary with well explained and illustrated fretboard diagrams, examples, contexts etc.
I’ve never heard of it, but I will ask Brett Stine if he has heard of it.
If Thomas ends up creating good albums/tunes, I don't care if he sounds like Holdsworth (as some people were complaining that he's a copycat).
Someone has to continue the Allan Holdsworth 'sound' .
The fcked up thing is that people orgasm all over Gary Moore and David Gilmore but yet we don't hear anything about how they are using the exact same licks nearly… From blues players that came before them! Thank you for your comment and supporting this channel!
There isn't another Allan Holdsworth. Never will be.
