Al Di Meola & John McLaughlin – Friday Night In San Francisco Limited Edition 180G Purple Vinyl LP

Friday Night in San Francisco is a live album by Al Di Meola, John McLaughlin, and Paco de Lucia. It was recorded live at the Warfield Theatre in San Francisco, CA on December 5 in 1980. The album is considered an iconic recording and was described by jazz author and critic Walter Kolosky as “a musical event that could be compared to the Benny Goodman Band’s performance at Carnegie Hall in 1938… [it] may be considered the most influential of all live acoustic guitar albums.”

Friday Night in San Francisco is available as a limited edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on purple vinyl and includes an insert.

VIVALDI IN VENICE – CHASING THE DRAGON – 180g VIVALDI IN VENICE – CHASING THE DRAGON – 180g VINYL

In Stock @thevinyladventure

Chasing The Dragon’s first “Direct Cut” album was of the Interpreti Veneziani performing a wonderful version of Vivaldi’s Four Seasons. When chatting with Paolo, the orchestra’s organizer, CTD discovered the group had never taken part in a ‘live’ recording. They have always performed in the San Vidal Church which is in the Academia area of Venice. The acoustics in the church are outstanding. So after some discussion with the orchestra, they were convinced to record a live double album there. This would mean that a small crew would have to go to Venice and record 5 live concerts. It’s a dirty job, but somebody had to do it! The jump factor of this album really has to be heard!
