pjw, I rate Di Meola way above Holdsworth, but I've also listened to a much larger portion of his work than Holdsworth.
I appreciate his talent, but I don't get any passion or soul from his music, so I stopped playing it. When he played with McLaughlin and Paco, sure, but that's not his typical fare.
