Paco, DiMeola & McLaughlin video

As some of you may know, I've been nursing a left wrist injury and have not been playing guitar at all over the past month. I've gotten bored with my current video library, so I was on the net searching for a fix when I came across Google video blog. There is a video of Paco de Lucia, John McLaughlin and Al DiMeola in a concert shot in Germana circa 1980. Here's the link:

if the link doesn't work, let me know

I have that whole video on a VHS bootleg. Some of it is amazing, some tunes show the guys were getting burnt out. I also bought the "official" Friday Night In San Francisco DVD, direct from Al Dimeola. It is only available at his concerts. I prefered the Germany concert to be honest, but it is nice to have that historic footage, since I am a Paco freak. The quality is really low, VHS bootleg quality. And it reveals that the original famous CD had some serious editing and splicing done. Still if you are a big fan and Al comes your way, you may want to pick it up.

Thank you kind sir, I'll keep that in mind. I couldn't believe I found that video, I mean it's over an hour long. The quality isn't all that great, but it's free, and helping to keep in the game on some level.

^^^LOL. Yea, I'm a bit out of the loop. Not to mention I only started my journey with flamenco back in July of '05.

RE: Paco, DiMeola & McLaughlin video (in reply to Francisco)

over an hour? Is that the vid on line that starts and ends with the whole trio playing? That is only half the show. I have the whole thing, well over 2 hours, that includes the solos and duos during daylight hours before the trio comes on at night. Paco plays columbianas and fandangos. That first part is the best part.
