There is also a Holdsworth line compendium the lines are categorized by scale. There is a voicing compendium; these are voicings from Allan’s tunes. There is also a Messiaen voicing compendium. These are not Messiaen voicings but voicings I found Intervallic structures for and walked through each of Messiaen’s 7 Modes of Limited Transposition using Allan’s approach. I put my heart and soul into it and I really hope you guys dig it and come away with a better understanding of Allan and his music.
