Comments for Di Meola, Al, Cielo e Terra

This album is 180 degrees from Scenario, his last date. After two years, Al appears with Manhattan records and plays the most intense music ever. Cielo e Terra is a solo acoustic guitar adventure that might take 50 listens to fully appreciate. With only Airto Moreira on percussion to help out, Al exploressome really heady stuff. This defines his new direction awayfrom electric fusion. The prize here is purely in the writing,and the dedicated Di Meola fan needs to understand this.
