A speed demon who is able to match John McLaughlin in the dexterity of his scalar runs, Mr. Di Meola has an impressive stylistic range that embraces both hard rock and a softer melodic lyricism. But Mr. Di Meola's most characteristic sound is distinctly Mediterranean in spirit with echoes of flamenco music mixing with Middle Eastern modalities, often over a strong Latin percussive base. This Mediterranean-Latin side of Mr. Di Meola's music dominated his set on Monday at the Savoy, where he appeared for two nights fronting a stellar quintet that included the keyboardist Jan Hammer, the bassist Anthony Jackson and the drummer Steve Gadd. But even with all the talent on display, the program had its glaring weaknesses. Though the music was impeccably executed, the compositions themselves were the sort of trite material that has given jazz fusion a bad name, and Mr. Di Meola's grandstanding style, which included a lot of speedy duets with Mr. Hammer, generally eschewed any attempt at personal expressiveness in favor of the splashy effect. What show did Stephen Holden from the NYT go to? It wasn't this one! Obviously he doesn't appreciate the delights of finely shredded fusion guitar and stellar keys. What a wanker! I think this is a totally smokin' show. Video quaity is decent - not great - but well worth the download. A fairly rare DVD that I thought I'd share with the real fusion fans here on DIME.
