[@raydan18]

absolutely brilliant...Al's signature upbeat feel and sense of the rhythm is incomparable ...

[@Bonzo19699999]

LA verdad al un maestro tanto como lo fue el gran astor. muchas gracias por el video. da placer escuchar estas melodias

[@elafalla]

Y en piano, el orgullo argentino Mario Parmisano ❤

[@Gurci28]

Argentina's new president, Javier Milei, has a big right-wing agenda. 5:35

[@VegasCyclingFreak]

That's the best tune from the album. Very fine live performance of it.

[@Gurci28]

Al Di Meola video without AI. 6:09

[@armato1970]

I grow old with Al Di Meola´s records, I can´t imagine life witout his music... even I have still the old big and black LP records, from my father

[@luke.metal.covers]

que bueno que al di meola haga un tema nuestros... me siento honrado... ensima musicalmente se fueron al joraca!!! exelente!!! y no no arruinaron nada... le dieron una interpretacion propia...

[@ulisesbore]

As this man is playing a group of crickets are going on his ears ( tinnitus) when he's done, the crickets go on 24/7. We gotta love him and respect him more than you guys think.

[@SpokesmaNofMadness]

You don't have to understand it, you don't have to see it, you don't have to remember it, all you have to do is feel it.The rhythm, passing through the heart, becoming alive filling you up with emotions both beautiful and sad and freeing your soul for awhile.That my friends is the art of music.And Al I might say is an artist.

[@Enhil88]

I saw him live in Lodz (Poland) , one of the best feelings ever, when that guy goes crazy with his guitar , the whole thing is outstanding

[@apshishir]

There are truly very very few guitarists play striking 6th & 5th strings and Al Di Meola is that one of the thousand guitarists...a wooden guitar can be played with soulful tune unlike any electric one, Meola is the rich home-example...Royal Salute for his highness Al Di Meola...

[@trajanus123]

he really kicks ass here! man he is good! my inspiration through many years. The combination, jazz,tango,latin,fusion awesome!!

[@Marmelademeister]

Excellent! Al Di Meola, of course, but also the drummer was amazing (the whole band was)!

[@Guzco1]

Good taste is not defined by territorial, musical, or cultural barriers. Excellence is universally accepted. If you can't recognize this as excellence, the fault lies not in the stars, but within yourself. Great job, Al.

[@SergioRicon]

Espectacular Maestro MARIO PARMISANO!!!!! Increible lo logrado. GRANDE MAESTRO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Bluesy1980]

ive listened to them all now. And Oshio kotaro, Al Di Meola, Andrey Dobrovolskiy, federico Vallejos are simply all truly masters. Oshio Ai the most creative, Al Di Meola - most professional, Andrey Dobrovolskiy - most musical, Federico is the most "tangy"/ Real masters of the instrument! And they all are my favourite, simply cant choose one of them/

[@KenKotsuNoGarp]

Awesome version. Im proud that our culture (im from Argentina) can produce something like this. I still prefer the original Piazzolla Version, but this one is really great, exept 2 o 3 parts where it goes too far away from the original one. But still.. pretty amazing

[@anglocalabro]

more of this constructive and generous comments of the like of Bluesy1980, within few lines he's given to me the opportunity to get to know great musicians of whom I ignored even the existence. Thank you.

[@Marioguitar]

this is the way you make things sound better live than in studio

[@flafo914]

Hubiera sido grandioso que Astor y Al Di hubiesen grabado algo juntos, hubiera sido el duo mas grande de la historia

[@trajanus123]

He's my favourite! my inspiration through all the years i've played the guitar. My mentor

[@hugoraullorenzo6104]

es muy bueno de escuchar, el interpreta diferente com cambios de ideias muy bonitas, es exelente

[@MelconWagner]

Al Di Meola continues to inspire me... and this video proves why he is still the most inspiring guitarist around!

[@fanqueen]

Soy un argentino en argentina y me facina tmb esta version, imprecionante, meola es un groso!

[@lionroarlion]

the best libertango ive ever heard.... wow.. its really beyond reality

[@Hellzdrumgod1971]

Ernie Adams is a beautiful player, so musical

[@serolav]

Soy un argentino en Europa.Esta versión me emociona hasta las lágrimas

[@TheGoddessCaroline]

@Neltheros I listen to that as well as many other genres. It would be sad to be locked into one type of genre let alone music. All the power to your musical taste and fabulous 'golden ears'.

[@Claymor621]

...and bloody marvellous playing.

[@CinemaVeriteSNM]

una de las cosas que mas me gustan de esta version es el toque de jazz que tiene. que maestro Astor!

[@MGSGeneral]

It just gets better and better....

[@TheHugofix]

Un músico que ha amado varias culturas musicales y nos ha hecho disfrutar de la visión de las mismas.

[@chivital]

Piazolla era grande. Gênio da música universal! Al di Meola, um dos maiores músicos de nossa era. Combinação fantástica!!!

[@youshnin]

impresionante!! yo toco este tema solo con guitarra y ver que alguien sea capaz de extender el tema original de esa manera es increible, Al Di Meola!! y el resto de los músicos son de admirar.. arriba el tango!! arriba Piazzolla!!

[@chanclie]

Excellent version!!!.It has the feeling of the Piazolla´s.Great.

[@marwachocolat]

yessssssss it will be so great if he will come againe

[@VirtualcieloSosa]

como pueden hacer tan excelente interpretacion??? que magicos son...apasionados, no me canso de verlos...

[@hugoalonso6945]

Espectacular versión. No me canso de escucharla. Me encantaría volver a ver a Al Di Meola en Argentina. Volve por favor

[@GT672]

Un Maestro....no comprendido suficientemente en Argentina estando aun el con vida....Pero como dijo Mark Twain..."Un hombre con una idea nueva es un loco, hasta que la idea triunfa"

[@dniboc7227]

I just love this...perfect music for Al

[@HolyAvgr]

You can't dislike excelence.

[@Neltheros]

@TheGoddessCaroline it is amazing how many different styles of music one can discover by playing an instrument. i started as a metal guitar player and after a while i started to admire the supreme technique of classical music and fusion. it really got me into many artists

[@TheGoddessCaroline]

Beautiful song! Thank you.

[@sissif7038]

Waouah....tout simplement...... Magnifique !!!!!! .....entre autre à partir de 4.10.....j'adooorrrrrree !!!!

[@Alkomp75]

...another great performance yesterday in Athens.....a lot of fans here in Greece......

[@654ceess456]

Esto es versionar y fusionar una obra como se debe, manteniendo la cadencia casi inidentificable por momentos, estos musicos son los que te hacen querer seguir tocando

[@Kilmarley]

Gumbi Ortiz on percussion. Great player and good guy.

[@AdrianPizzurno]

Excelente Version !!!

[@AlexxPigreco]

Che bellezza!!! Awesome.

[@themusicdr]

this is so cool. i love the musicianship of all of the band (guitar goes w.out saying) but check out the pianist and the drummer (esp the guy in the purple t-shirt) i love some of the syncopated rythmns in this

[@CesK2704]

FABULANTASTICO, UNA MEZCLA DE FABULOSO CON FANTÁSTICO!!

[@tonylibb]

Es tan bueno este tema, que cualquier variacion que se le haga siempre queda bien.

[@filatetes]

genial interpretacion de Aldi Meola, grande maestro.

[@Ramibatal982]

The piano section is amazing!!!

[@ajciccar3]

i just love the way he plays

[@Gipsysawyer]

wooooooooooooooooooow please come back to morocco we love you Al the elegant gipsy

[@victoriadean4212]

A class act from start to finish.

[@TheMilagros59]

magnificat... in crescendo de notas.... wonderful

[@retissier]

Increíble, una de las mejores versiones que escuche, tengo otra diferente de Al Di Meola en cd.

[@АнжелаПасниченко]

Давно не слышала это чудо :-)!!!

[@ijavier78]

Al is not the most soulful musician in the world. He is very technical and rhythmic, and of course his interpretation is going to reflect those things. I think the entire "Plays Piazzolla" album is awesome. Even if Di Meola is not being true to the original intent of the composer, he is being true to himself and his style. Al is the man! Nuff said.

[@rufinosanchez2703]

¡Fantástico y extraordinario!...

[@genriettaaga2091]

Thank you! This performance always moved to tears!

[@IA309]

и часами слушал это исполнение,когда в первые услышал

[@IzabelParis]

PQP this is breathtakingly beeeeeautiful. thanks for uploading.

[@crnirok1]

Absolutely amazing !!!

[@sat1354]

al is very educated..genious...great...no comments

[@CARLREI96]

esto no es arruinar un tema no digan cualquier cosa si no entienden de musica... esto es una fusion del tema libertango espetacular hagan algo ustedes si pueden

[@samerika]

thank you

[@COOTIEBUG01]

Screameola is still so awesome, I wish I could have seen him live. ..

[@SuperGerardo100]

UN PLACER .UN MAESTRO AL DI MEOLA.

[@jenko701]

THIS IS MAGIC

[@rd40082]

Unfortunaley we do not have the master composer Piazzola to ask what he thinks about AL's version but for my humble opinion it sounds awesome

[@TheSamara89kitten]

How have I missed this wonderful interpretation of the classic??

[@marwachocolat]

so wonderful! please come back to morocco we love you so much!

[@GT672]

Este Piazzolla es un maestro...A pesar de que en los 60 los de "la Vieja Guardia" le tiraban duro, incluso la prensa como el que iba a "destrozar" el Tango o "degenerar"...Lei su biografia y decia que como buen Tanto, era calenton y cada tanto bajaba del Escenario para repartir trompadas...Al tocar el bandoneo parado, es un ejercicio enorme el constante abrir y cerrar del fuelle...Asi que Astor daba sus buenas trompadas...

[@AUGUSTOAUSANIO]

Awesome... Great version...

[@Claymor621]

Great tune.

[@MrMayue]

Thank you for this nice melody

[@juanchiayres]

i think he took a masterpiece from Piazzolla and added his knowledge and skills to make it another beautiful and almost completely different piece of music, he does not only demonstrates what a great musician he is but also what is capable of doing with his own tools and habilities

[@themusicdr]

i dont think theres any other guitarist whose music i listen to more than this guy on you tube -that include satriani vai johnson malmsteen and even the great carlos santana

[@trulspetersen]

his octave effect is so awesome! =D

[@lionroarlion]

beautiful...

[@murthax]

Fantastico!

[@fidelhifi]

gran version del maestro piazzolla

[@gerardochiarella6448]

[@guitarczar15]

he makes it look so cool

[@laburbuja07]

brother, it´s just an AMAZING tribute, they´re no trying to make it better...

[@melibass]

i love you!!god and god and i dont know ther is no words!!!!!!

[@lionroarlion]

they look beautiful in human shape may be one of the most beatiful state that humans can be

[@conny231063]
