45 minutes of acoustic guitar madness, this album which released in 1981 features five tracks, four of which were recorded LIVE at the Warfield Theater and one in the studio. The recordings feature left and right channel separation so the audience can discern who’ds playing each piece.  Featuring a fusion of Jazz and Flamenco styles, the album featured stalwarts John Maclaughlin of Shakti, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Chick Corea, Spanish sensation Paco de Lucia who despite not studying music formally played with the greats all over the world and Italian American Al de Meola who played with Chick Corea, Stanley Clarke and Lenny White in Return for Forever and went solo after recording three albums with them. All three stalwarts are legends in their own right and their solo and collective work and projects are monuments by themselves. An exciting album to have.

There are many others Rush, Exit Stage Left; Clapton 24 Nights; The Who Live at Leeds; , Wishbone Ash LIVE Dates an album I have to get my hands on, Dream Theater, Scenes from a memory,  John Mayer Live in Los Angles and a few Englebert Humperdink LIVE albums floating about as well, BB King LIVE in Japan or LIVE in San Quentin and the lsit goes on…
