Our Take

AL DI MEOLA may have just checked into the Splendido Hotel, but after listening to Electric Rendezvous, I'm ready to book my own room and stay a while. This album is like a musical vacation, with Di Meola's virtuosic guitar playing taking listeners on a journey through Latin rhythms, jazz fusion, and beyond.

From the moment the opening track "Sequencial" kicks in, it's clear that Di Meola is a maestro of his craft. The intricate guitar work on each song is nothing short of mind-blowing, with lightning-fast solos and complex chord progressions that will leave you wondering how it's humanly possible to play like that.

But Electric Rendezvous isn't just about technical prowess. The album is also teeming with rich textures and grooves that will have you swaying along in no time. Tracks like "Ritmo de la Noche" and "Passion, Grace & Fire" showcase Di Meola's ability to blend different genres seamlessly, creating a sonic tapestry that is as impressive as it is enjoyable.

So, whether you're a die-hard jazz fan or just someone looking for some top-notch guitar shredding, Electric Rendezvous has something for everyone. AL DI MEOLA has truly outdone himself with this album, proving once again why he is a legend in the world of music. So grab your passport and check in to the Splendido Hotel – this is one musical experience you won't want to miss.
