Al Di Meola: Opus
by Doug Collette
Guitarist/composer Al Di Meola explores his heritage musically and otherwise in the near hour-long Opus. Largely a solo project, the music becomes all the more compelling for an intricacy mirrored in the deceptively ornate cover art. The intimacy arising from the very first tones of Milonga Noctiva (Wandering in the Dark)" eventually alternates overdubs ...

Four Fourty: Us+Them=1
by Seton Hawkins
In an age where many albums rely on pyrotechnics, famous guest musicians or outright all-star lineups, Four Fourty offers a refreshing alternative.

The results speak ...
