And that is because he or she has reached the level of a \"virtuoso\" or \"maestro,\" in other words, a \"master\" as a musician. Alan Holdsworth is one of the few musicians and guitarists who have reached the level of such a \"maestro. His numerous albums are now available on hybrid SACD!\n\n\n\nSince his first visit to Japan in 1984, he has performed in Japan 24 times and played 159 gigs. Of these, only 5 were recorded, and only a video of his first visit to Japan in 1984 and a CD of his visit to Japan in 2002 were released. The material recorded at the Roppongi Pit Inn was not satisfactory to the perfectionist Holdsworth, and was put in storage. After more than six months of persuasion, the material was finally released at the end of 2003.\n\n\n\nThe band consists of four members, including the rhythm section of Jimmy Johnson \u0026amp; Gary Husband and Steve Hunt on keyboards. The set consists of \"I.O.U.\", \"Atavachron\", \"Sand\", \"Hard Hat Area\" and other numbers from the Tony Williams Lifetime era, which were Hallsworth's favorites at the time. This was one of Holdsworth's favorite set list at that time.The high-octane performance is so accomplished that it is hard to believe that it had been kept in storage, and is comparable to the later release of \"All Night Wrong\". It also includes three complete improvisations featuring baritone guitar that were never recorded for the album. This is a long-awaited album that has finally seen the light of day.\n\n\n\nImported domestic specs\n\n1CD\n\n*E single limited paper jacket with liner notes\n\n*SACD Hybrid\n\n(Can be played on both standard CD players and SACD-compatible players.
