Friday Night in San-Francisco - Di Meola, Mc Laughlin, De Lucia


What a beautiful meeting this is! Three giants playing together on stage on a certain Friday night in 1980 … and obviously getting along wonderfully well. The only criticism that might be done is the brevity of the record: I want more!

Of the three jazz guitarists performing here, it is the British John McLaughlin I know best. In addition to numerous solo albums and those recorded with his band The Mahavishnu Orchestra, McLaughlin also worked with Miles Davis, Carlos Santana and many others.

But what made him recognized as a true experimenter is the work he did with Ravi Shankar, for which he had to immerse in Indian music.
