The Allan Holdsworth & Alan Pasqua Live at Yoshi's DVD is now available for pre-order directly from the Altitude Digital website. This short clip is one of several from the DVD that Altitude Digital has uploaded to YouTube. The DVD was recorded live at Yoshi's in Oakland California last year, during a tour Holdsworth and Pasqua did with Chad Wackerman (drums), and Jimmy Haslip (bass). On the tour, the band played material from the old Tony Williams New Lifetime band, which Holdsworth and Pasqua were both members of. The show was filmed in HD, but it's not clear from the pre-order page if this is a standard DVD, or an HD-DVD. I'm assuming it's standard. There's no release date listed either, but all indications are it should be released soon.
2/2/07 Update: The release date should be March 6th or 13th, and it's confirmed to be a standard DVD. Check out this thread on the Holdsworth forum for more info.

Excellent. Chad is an excellent drummer. Tasty.

Is that some kind of a Carvin Fatboy-Steinberger hybrid?
It's great to see more recent Holdsworth. He's the master!

JP,
I believe that's his custom Bill DeLap guitar.

Maybe they did get to the moon in 1969 but Holdsworth's achievement is so much more impressive.
