These three guitarists have such great, individually-earned reputations that it`s no surprise that this album is a technical tour de force . What surprised me is that it`s a real pleasure to listen to as well; in the midst of the bright, glittering fretwork, there are some softer, lyrical touches too. That makes it, imo, a better album than their Friday Night in `Frisco outing, which was just too much of a virtuoso display for my liking.
So, this album gets an " Excellent" from me.
