The level of musicianship here is astounding, a veritable tour de force. Talk about progressive, modern jazz: it gets no better than this. Beautiful arrangement, led by perhaps the most imaginative, technically proficient guitarist extant, Al D.

I've been a fan of Al's since day 1. 👍

Outstanding

[@hkshahidi2794]

I was at this hall a few years back at a different Al show with Peo Alfonsi. It was a beautiful show, very intimate and great sound. Al played quite a bit of rhythm and, boy, he sounds like a whole band by himself when he does. Great compositions. Great playing. Great venue.

Very nice

[@mgerakos]

Al at his most elegant and lyrical. I like this version better than the trio version--the variety of instrumental timbres really complements the piece.

[@petrucarp2512]

Beautiful music!

[@grillosaint]

Great concert, I imagine Anthony Jackson playing bass, it would be awesome!

[@gantz33tz]

Uff, you know 👌💙

[@MarttiSuomivuori]

A bass would be nice.

[@JosueLopez-gn1me]

Wonderfull. Thanks!

[@danielleohallisey4218]

He's playing through Roland's VB-88 to get the modeled guitar sounds and honestly, to get most of the things that sound like a synth. I know he also incorporates a GR-33 guitar synth into his system but this time around, it sounds like all VG to me! Love Al. Love him. This concert is a classic!

[@raulfunes2966]

Un lujo y un privilegió poder disfrutar de un músico de semejante categoría!!!!! Gracias!!!! Mil gracias

[@fridun007]

i have this on dvd, why am i watching it on youtube? oh yeah, it's awesome!

[@hitthecouch]

He sure does make an Ovation sound good.

[@chris0toffel]

The DVD title is ''One Of These Nights'', released in 2005

[@caosycosmos]

Thanks!

[@aleksandrpopov5610]

The 6th string's sound is modified. Two halftones under the standard E. Just to make bass part more expressive, I think.

[@frusciante2811]

drop d tuning. the low e string tuned down to d

[@mrmogensen]

and the full concert is on youtube somewhere

[@fusion-music]

Al, are you triggering samples of your own guitar (electric) on tracks like these, or are they voices from a standard midi device? Works very well. Really enjoying these live versions.

[@JetEarlewood]

Yeah. For what it's worth, I use a GR-33 too

[@perrycomeau2627]

Hear what I mean?

[@caosycosmos]

excuse me, whats the name of the dvd??

[@jime6353]

Who was playing bass?

[@66buttafuori]

Without Bass Player ;)

[@chungasrevenge9222]

I wish he would play straight without effects.

[@irishguy13]

The effects are beautiful and the musicianship is amazing.
