Al Di Meola: Elegant Gypsy version on vinyl LP in Standard edition. This particular edition was published in Europe in publishing company Music On Vinyl in cooperation with Columbia on 28. August 2015.

Product information Al DiMeola's second album Elegant Gypsy (1977) became one of the defining albums in the field of Fusion. While still a member of Return To Forever, DiMeola released his second solo album after Land Of The Midnight Sun, collaborating with jazz-rock greats Steve Gadd, Jan Hammer and Anthony Jackson. He even enlisted flamenco superstar Paco De Lucia for the track "Mediterranean Sundance," which foreshadows the style DiMeola eventually evolved into: Acoustic magic with a Latin twist. The album Elegant Gypsy was certified gold in the United States. Rezensionen "Und doch gibt es statt seelenlosen Gedudels auch reichlich Melodien und begeisternde Rhythmen, so dass die elegante Zigeunerin auch heute noch anmutig und anhörbar die Abtastnadel tanzen lässt". (Good Times, August/September 2013)

Album spans genres Rock, Jazz, Fusion and Jazz-Rock. 180g Vinyl.
