Allan Holdsworth
Allan Holdsworth showed me that you don't need to pick fast in order to play fast... All my legato technique is influenced by his style..... Check out the album Road Games and then jump into Metal Fatigue. These two records really blew my mind and changed my thinking about playing the guitar. All those swell's and right hand chord tapping. To this day I believe he was just way ahead of his time..... Brilliant player.....
Check out this live video. Not the greatest quality but wow!.......
