4 stars Three among the best acoustic guitar players in the 70's offer you an unbelievable jazzy acoustic guitar performance, played LIVE at the speed of the light! No bass, no drums, no keyboards: just pure acoustic guitars. You are going to be enchanted by the technical performance and the perfect synchronization of those 3 virtuosos. There are tons of rhythm patterns and extremely fast flamenco solos, slightly romantic. It is not rare to hear in the background the crowd to positively respond to the musical extravaganzas. There is often a "conversation" between the 3 guitars themselves! Shall we add this: graceful, beautiful and dynamic. If you like acoustic guitars on some of the Return to forever's albums, then get this record as soon as possible. For people who do not know jazz very much, let's say this is an amplified "La Villa Strangiato" intro (Rush). After the listen, if you still do not like acoustic guitars, then there is about nothing one can do for you to like them.

Rating: 4.5 stars
