Sand
The Story
"Sand" features guitarist Holdworth's experiments with the Synthaxe instrument--kind of a cross between a guitar and a synthesizer. "Sand" also includes Jimmy Johnson on bass and Chad Wackerman on drums and percussion, among other artists. Featured are beautiful compositions and fiery guitar solos - well, what else would you expect from the legato master?
