This video is an experimental remix of Allan's performance of "Letters Of Marque" from the Frankfurt '86 jazz festival. The audio and video is sourced from the 2020 release by Manifesto Records, links below. The master tape was taken from the two-channel broadcast version, which has some issues with levels, in particular the drums suffer in the mix. To see what could be done about this, the stereo audio was split into multitrack stems by Spleeter, which uses artificial intelligence to separate instruments. The stems were imported into Cakewalk by Bandlab. Some eq and compression/limiting was applied, and levels were adjusted. The Spleeter software is very impressive, but not perfect yet. Some artifacts can be heard throughout. It does however bring out nuances in the playing which you may enjoy. Let me know what you think!
Allan Holdsworth, guitar
Kei Akagi, keyboards
Gary Husband, drums
Jimmy Johnson, bass

Here are excerpts of Jimmy Johnson's comments on this gig, taken from the Alembic forum: JJ: “This particular gig was at the Frankfurt Musikmesse in 1986. That's the EU equivalent of our NAMM show here in the States but actually a larger exposition. I don't remember the exact circumstances which brought Kei Akagi into the band on keyboards, but this was his first and only tour with the band. He did an excellent job of dealing with the music but never had the chance to get very comfortable with it. Furthermore, I'm sure Allan and I got together with him in LA for a couple rehearsals but it's possible he had not yet played with Gary Husband until the day of this show.” JJ: “This was the very first gig of the tour - and likely funded our flight expenses to get to Europe. So we had flown in the day before, then spent almost all of this day jet-lagged and running around the Muskmesse collecting gear which had been offered from various manufacturers for use on the tour. But as I said, that convention is HUGE so picture us trying to find the Mesa Boogie booth (or whatever he was using at the time) on the floor of the show, then finding a handcart to wheel speaker cabinets the 2 miles to the venue, dealing with security to get the gear out of the building, etc... I have the feeling we had to chase down a drum kit that same way. That took all day leaving us precious little time for a soundcheck or a much needed rehearsal with the full band.” JJ: “So we had done what we could to get set up with the borrowed gear and get the monitors working so we could hear each other. We understood that we were contractually obligated to let the "festival" be recorded for a one-time tv broadcast. What we had NOT anticipated was that as soon as we started playing, 2 or 3 handheld cameramen and their cable wrangling assistants were running back and forth on stage basically in our faces. To the point where they were stepping on our pedals! Complete disregard for us trying to concentrate on the music. It was one of those situations where you needed to completely close your eyes and not see what was happening around you. But then my chorus effect would suddenly turn on. HA!!” Found here: club.alembic.com/index.php?topic=8041.1500

Key Akagi, Allan and Bunny Brunel on bass ( I forgot who was on the drums ) played a concert in the GIT , Los Angeles in 1986 . Key Akagi used to perform with Al Dimeola at that time and with Franck Gambale later in 1988 ...I remember GIT had the video of this concert...

It was the first time I saw him and I had been playing guitar for about 7 years. It just floored me. There was another guitarist there (Mo Nazam) in the audience who I know. We just kept looking at each other in disbelief. I have some great photos of the gig. There is a bootleg out there to download on blogspot of the bass clef gig which was originally recorded by a geography teacher named Murry! (a Zappa enthusiast). Great memories.

Gary and Allan...just the best team ever for me...and Jimmy such a perfect flow ...I feel so lucky to have witnessed this band 3 tims in one week in 1989...with Steve Hunt on keys...never matched musically for me on any live gig.

I hate to say it, but I'm so grateful for those camera men getting right up in the players crotch! The shot of their hands playing is amazing! And bless those players for putting up with those invasive German camera men!

About 13 years ago I saw Holdsworth at the "Baked Potato" with Jimmy Johnson and Chad Wackerman. Aside from a few gray hairs, Jimmy looked identical to this video with I presume is the same bass and ... glasses!

The great Allan holdsworth is the greatest guitarist the world has ever know, the john Coltrane of the guitar. He has never played a wrong note in his entire career,and yet he struggled to get record deals,that in it self is a travisty! This genius changed the way the guitar is played forever, he also introduced the synthaxe which is a impossible instrument to master, yet this glorious musician did.even after his death still doesn't get the credit he rightfully deserves. He is just as important as bird, Coltrane, monk,armstrong,Ellington and roach. There really needs to be a monument erected in honor of this wonderful genius. Thank you Allan for all your genius.
