Allan Holdsworth is awesome, but it’s not apples-to-apples to make this comparison, as Clapton preceded him by 50 years here.

Clapton was The Guy who skyrocketed the use and popularity of the electric guitar back in the 60’s. There would be no Allan Holdsworth without Eric Clapton.

Interesting nonetheless. Thanks for posting.

Whoa! 50 years? Allan died in 2017.
This is Allan with Soft Machine at Montreux in 1974.
