![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Paco De Lucia/John Mclaughlin/Al Di Meola - Friday Night In San Francisco Not only does this album feature five kick-arse songs, three phenomenal players and more ripping acoustic playing than you can shake a stick at, but the entire thing was performed live, so you know these three guys were really in sync. There are plenty of guitar-centric albums that people should own (Shut Up And Play Yer Guitar, Perpetual Burn, Passion And Warfare, you know the drill...) and this album is definitely one of them. Here's a vid of the trio tearing it up for the uninitiated: http://youtube.com/watch?v=9cadbYIzhqQ Enjoy! |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | This album blew my mind when I first heard it (at age 14-15 IIRC). All three of them are hugely inspiring players. On a side-note, I just got McLaughlin's 'Industrial Zen' album, and that's a great one too! 'If one octave isn't interesting then who the hell cares about the others?!'

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | It took me ages to "get" Mclaughlin, for the longest time I knew him through Mahavishnu and didn't like that he'd use all his harmonic knowledge to play blues licks through fusion tunes, but I eventually heard Shakti and the rest was history... |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | how's this compare to "Passion, Grace, and Fire" ? cuz i've got that album and i'd give it like 4 stars in actually being listenable as a normal music experience. I'm not big on "guitar albums" |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I prefer it to "Passion, Grace and Fire". The whole live thing gives it more balls. For me the worst part of the album is this part where they go into a Pink Panther/blues section which the crowd goes nuts for. It makes me cringe ![]() |
