I have the self-titled album from UK, and his playing is top notch. Where to go from there?

As far as I remember, he plays on some albums of Pierre Moerlen's Gong, e.g. "Shamal" I think, and also on Jean Luc Ponty's "Enigmatic Ocean", which I like.

Then I found this website, which looks interesting (didn't investigate it very deeply, though...):

No one mentioned Atavachron and Sand...

Holdsworth was in the 1980's a guru on the Synthaxe and Atavachron a must for fusion and em listeners(those willing to leave TD land...). He's got chops that make jaws drop!
