For a moment I was reminded of Al Di Meola’s guitar work on Passion, Grace, and Fire, with Paco De Lucia and John McLaughlin. A strong influence from flamenco style music but amazing jazz fusion pioneers. I’ll search for Eric Johnson’s “Ah.”

I love that album. Al di Meola, De Lucia and McLaughlin were a magical trio when they got together, their playing wove a masterful tapestry

Always amazing. Ah Via Musicom was one of the first CDs I bought, and it’s still one of my favorites. Cliffs of Dover smokes, but there were plenty of other great tunes on that album.

I had no knowledge of Eric Johnson until you...I played this nice and loud in the kitchen while I'm cooking. Thanks!
