AL DI MEOLA Elegant Gypsy (Superb 2024 limited edition 6-track LP, an all-analogue audiophile quality stereo pressing on 180-gram vinyl at 33RPM from Impex Records. Fusion maestro Al Di Meola broke into the mainstream with his fiery, certified-gold-selling 1977 album. Backed by impassioned performances from an unmatched collection of side men including Jan Hammer, Steve Gadd, Paco de Lucía and Anthony Jackson, Di Meola’s spellbinding melodicism and explosive technique create what Scott Yanow of All Music Guide calls “A near classic in the fusion vein.” Faithfully reproduced sleeve and labels of the finest quality, sealed with its gold elliptical Impex Records sticker.
