If three's a crowd, this's a veritable clout on pun-makers! Three different temperaments on the same instrument.
Villanelle: On listening to Al Di Meola, John McLaughlin and Paco de Lucia - June 12, 1980
Tico Tico swallows tumbling in the frisky air
Round and round in Rondenôs whisk sparrows
Paco aloof in Andauzian tempo Malaguena rare
Piroueting incisive onrush cascades bare
No strings wave upon wave in strict sweeping rows
Tico Tico swallows tumbling in the frisky air
John abeting Al to shake free from Camaron dare
The tsunami shaking out of the Devil's maws
Paco aloof in Andaluzian tempo Malaguena rare
All argumentative cursing beginning no-where
Irascible abrasive rabid racy tune soars
Tico Tico swallows tumbling in the frisky air
Torrential currents let John loose in manic scare
That Al contests entraps in torrid lassoes
Paco aloof in Andaluzian tempo Malaguena rare
This salmagundi of virtuoso notes snare
One and all from the caverns of Sleepy Hollows
Tico Tico swallows tumbling in the frisky air
Paco aloof in Andaluzian tempo Malaguena rare
Let's say I was even a little more than enthralled with the performance. What can one do with guys who are not only virtuosos by nature but masters who themselves enjoy giving off their delirious best, knowing their audience cannot but be subdued in the process. One comes off feeling skinned to the raw.

Every good wish and many thanks.
