Title: Bummer

Allan Holdsworth has died. Guy was beyond genius in the world of guitar players. I still remember the first time I heard "Metal Fatigue"!

Ai, this is sad news. Been a big fan for decades, and had the good fortune to see him play several times. Metal Fatigue was the first album that got me hooked (although it took some exposure before I finally got to grips with it). Fortunately, we still have the music ...

We lost a great guitarist.  I saw him on the Metal Fatigue tour.  He could make hard stuff look easy.
