I see the Giraffe Live at Cactus Club is now available to order. (12/13/2023)
There's also a new Thud Alternate as well. (I hadn't seen that discussed here.)
While I love everything KG did, I...
Awesome!!
Can't wait to get this.
I got these, (Thud Acoustic and Caviar - Demos, Outakes & Alternate Mixes), a few weeks back. I haven't really had the time to sit down with them and really take it all in yet. Just wanted to chime...
Bobby Caldwell - Heart of Mine.
(After the news of his passing.)
This is really sad. I loved his voice and songs.
I always felt that he had a great voice, but stayed away from all of the fancy stuff a lot of singers try to throw in.
Wrote some beautiful and...
I saw Joe Satriani at the Beacon on October 27. I can't say that I noticed anything special about the sound.
I didn't change seats, so I can't say if it sounded the same everywhere.
It was a...
Can't wait now!
I've listened to both now. These are both really cool releases. More for the fan who wants to hear EVERYTHING KG did. Personally, I can't get enough of this stuff.
It just amazes me to think he...
Got these in the mail a couple days ago.
I've only had a chance to listen to Beer Jam 2 so far, but it's very cool!
This is a different Jeff Berlin - not the bass player from Bruford.
Count me in!
Another great interview!
Jonathan Mover is an absolute monster of a drummer.
Thanks for posting the video and the heads-up on the July release!
I took my son to see them last night, but the show was in CT not NYC. We did hear that Portnoy went to the show the night before. I'd been to this venue (Toyota Oakdale Theater) once before, and...
Listening to the latest Dream Theater (A View From The Top Of The World). Taking my son to see them tomorrow night.
Received the limited edition yesterday - amazing package!
I had also ordered the standard version which came last week - very quick shipping!
Now I just need to get my turntable squared away so...
I was able to download the album last week as a bonus for buying tickets for the tour, so I've been enjoying it for a little while. I'm really loving the whole thing - every song.
If one song...
Looks like the limited edition sold out within an hour!
Thanks for the heads-up!
Great interview!
I saw them a number of times around then - once in Clifton Park. I think the place was called Charity's or something like that. We weren't married yet, but my now wife came with me. The place was...
Looking forward to this! (And the reissue as well...)
A couple pages already discussing this:

Thank you for the advice.
Thanks!
Thanks.
I'm a completist as well, but this is a lot of music for 6 tracks. I guess I was hoping to like/be interested in some of the rest of it.
(I do have Belladonna - I hardly ever play it.)
Thanks for that information.
Too bad it's not possible to buy individual cds... A 13 disc set is a pretty big commitment for really only wanting the Holdsworth tunes!
Have you had a chance to...
Another great "You Are Here" episode:

"The Best of Everything" arrived yesterday, and I've listened to it a number of times. Listening to it right now, in fact.
This is such a great release!
I knew the song from the Bolts release but...
I watched this yesterday based on your recommendation.
It was very interesting - not really what I expected, but I'm glad I watched it. (I'm not sure what I was actually expecting...)
Thanks for...
This (The Best of Everything) arrived yesterday and I've listened to it a bunch of times.
I knew the song, but it's been good to really concentrate on it. I enjoy hearing the demos that lead up to...
I've only been to 4 this year:
Ben Folds
Thana Alexa (w/Antonio Sanchez on drums)
Pat Metheny Side Eye
Oz Noy Trio (w/Anton Fig and Will Lee)
Looks like Manifesto has added a few more sets.
...
I received the "Allan's Legacy: 19 Men of Tain" CD a few days ago - it's fantastic! I highly recommend it to any Holdsworth fans.
The playing is great, the interpretations are honest but not...
Ordered as well!
Also, the latest episode of You Are Here is up:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HjuCCjRh_A
Another great episode Gruno! Very thankful for what you do.
This sounds very interesting - I ordered a copy.
I'm really looking forward to checking out what Paul Wertico does with Holdsworth music!
By the way, the Leverkusen 2010 release is fantastic.
Looking forward to this!
Any KG material is an auto buy.
Available for pre-order on Amazon:
...
I was really shocked to hear that Richie Faulkner had to have heart surgery after the show on Sunday! Apparently, he finished the show before getting medical help!
...
I saw him play with Steps Ahead, and he was fantastic.
This is an auto buy.
I couldn't find where to preorder, though. Does anyone have a link?
Thanks!
Downloaded the new album (Shenjutsu) first thing this morning. Listened to it a couple of times, and I'm really liking it a lot.
Sounds like Maiden - and that's a great thing!
So far I've listened to the new Iron Maiden (Shenjutsu) a couple of times - really digging it!
Fantastic review of a beautiful piece of music.
I'm still sad about Lyle's passing. It's nice to have this new music. (And, of course, his whole discography.)
Mine came in the mail today. (#102.) Very fast shipping - only took 4 days from CA to NY with a weekend in there as well.
Not sure if I'm actually going to open it up and play it - I have other...
I received the Giraffe Box set last week. (After sitting at a post office 100 miles away for the better part of a week! It took a couple of weeks to get to me.) I've listened to it all and watched...
Took my son to see DP and JP this past weekend. They were fantastic, and we had a great time. Glenn Hughes is playing locally here in a week - thinking we'll go see him as well.
Really sad to see this. I've been a fan of his for quite a while - can't remember where I first heard him - maybe Hat. I love his Doug Lunn Project cd, and am listening to it now. RIP Doug.
Paul Buchanan of The Blue Nile.
I was really happy to hear/watch this. As mentioned - the playing was fantastic.
I also watched a Steve Gadd Band streaming concert last week. The production values were really good on that...
One of my favorite artists: Bendik Hofseth
Logged in, listening to audience chatter, waiting for the curtain to rise!
I've been signed up for this, and I can't wait!
The note about winding down his touring career is really depressing. I thought I read he'd do some dates here and there, just no big tours. Like a...
Wow! Thanks Gruno. I'm glad too because I had my 9 year old with me. She did drop the f bomb a couple of times, but it wasn't too bad. She took the abuse with good humor and humility, so that's...
Saw TFF this past Monday at the Capitol Theater in Portchester, NY.
Great show! I was so glad to finally see them. They played just about all the hits, and a really broad selection of material -...
Thanks Rick!
It's very interesting reading everyone's perspective on this album and the recent IM material in general.
I feel like I'm coming at it completely opposite from most members here. I was aware of...
Thanks!
REALLY digging this new release! I've been listening to Iron Maiden Radio on Sirius (Liquid Metal), and just enjoying the buzz around all of this. They really aren't one of "my" groups, but I've...
Made it to last night's show in Newark, NJ.
As I mentioned in an earlier post, I am a Toto fan and went for the meet and greet, etc. Also, I brought my 9 y.o. who is a Toto fanatic as well. He was...
