Allan Holdsworth - Sphere of Innocence Lesson & Tutorial pt. 1

Finally getting around to doing this. Note that this song is tuned in 5ths so unless you arrange it, you can't play it in standard. I'm teaching it in 5ths, using a midi pick up and showing the standard notation for the chords on screen. Also if any of the chords sound a little strange, its because the low 'F' string was ringing out a little since the pickup in so sensitive.

I would have had this uploaded a few days ago but had major issues exporting the video.

Some of you also might take some issue with some of the chord names. I figured I would add I did not take the bass note into consideration and only focus on the chords. I also tried to give the chord the most straightforward name I can, even if functionally it might not be correct.

Also, let me know what other songs you would like to see! For those that do not know, I have written a book that lists and arranges chords used by Allan. In doing that I have transcribed over 50 of his tunes.
