4 stars If you enjoy loads and loads of accoustic guitars, than this is the album to get. A fabulous mixture of Spanish Flamengo, jazz, some blues, and other styles. The interplay between the players is so good that despite the technicality of their music the soul (which is the core of all music) of the compositions remain very much in tact. The pace of the music constantly fluctuates which provides a constant anticipation of what's to come. For those not knowing any of the three players, the music can be described (IMO) as a combination of Steve Howe's best accoustic works (Clap, Mood for a Day), but than in longer compositions. But I guess most of us do know Paco, All and John well enough to know that this link to Steve doesn't really does them justice as it is much more. Anyway, this is a great album, and guitar freaks should get their hands on it.
