Al Di Meola - Tribute to Chick Corea - Some Time Ago / This Way Before (LIVE 2021)

[@zainalabidinramli762]

With Al's age now moving towards being 70, for the last decade its kinda hard to predict whats his direction.. Seems like his love and passion for music is more to his mood now. But whatever, still one of the greatest composers and players of complex music. Also he looks like eric clapton in this video.

All the musicians from the seventies just keep getting better. Saw Mcglaughlin at eighty just now. Still kicking arse. 😁

[@craiglizt8074]

I can't unsee Clapton 🤣🤣 Glad to still see Al playing at an ultra-high level.

[@richiefox9612]

lol

[@bottleforty1]

I hadn't heard of Al until RTF's "Where have I known you before" album. He blew me away with his amazing chops. Just as good today as yesterday. 😲😲😊

Always amazing

[@ghanisalibas7562]

Al Dimeola est le musicien le plus proche artistiquement , avec stanley Clarke ( bien sûr) du maître Corea !

[@joeamore5769]

Al is still going strong!👍✌️💥😁

[@elisavieira737]

Thanks ❤️

[@drphelps9017]

The infusion of minor riffs into major progressions is done so tastefully. A great piece.

[@yogavibe2516]

This may seem somewhat tame, but this is a study in steady and clean, sustained playing. A new respect for DiMeola I now have.

[@antoniorobertodasilva3716]

Todas a homenagens à Chick são insuficientes! CHICK COREA FOREVER!

[@outoper]

Concordo. Foi um extraordinário criador do que se chama "fusion jazz".

[@geneclemetson4779]

Just like Santana with the original Mark series Boogies, DiMeola is the only one whoever made an Ovation sound so amazing.

[@gregcarter8656]

Di Meola collaborated with Ovation to design a signature model. I have a similar Ovation 6-string model, same black color and pickups. I'm sure the one Al is playing in this video is his signature Ovation model, 1769-ADii. The model is no longer available, but you can see it on KZbin, and some other websites.

Al, where is your tribute to Larry Coryell?

[@alberthaust4542]

The song is "Some Time Ago."

[@docteurromaintourniaire4910]

Some Time Ago (Corea) + This Way Before (Di Meola)

[@alberthaust4542]

@@docteurromaintourniaire4910 I noticed that, but couldn't remember the name of the second song.

Just play the damn thing sans over-the-top ego. Oh wait? Al's here? Uh never mind. That won't work lol.

[@ecojot]

is this on any of his albums?

[@Nosirrah2112]

If you surpass everyone on planet earth do you just start looking like Eric Clapton and Al?

[@boggy6060]

You can call me Al

[@luke125]

Looking a lot like Eric Clapton these days.
