Saturday Night in San Francisco – IMPEX 180g Vinyl LP
Hear Al Di Meola, John McLaughlin, and Paco de Lucía in Saturday Night in San Francisco, the follow-up to Friday Night in San Francisco. This IMPEX Records audiophile 180g vinyl LP captures the guitar trio's final performance at San Francisco's Warfield Theater on December 6, 1980, with a selection of solos and trio performances.
From the intricate lines of "Splendido Sundance" to "Meeting Of The Spirits," the recording puts the interplay of three virtuoso guitarists at the center of your listening session. Their fast-moving exchanges and expressive acoustic playing make this live album a compelling addition to a jazz guitar vinyl collection.
