Biography
Jersey City, NJ, United States (1974 – present)
From the beginning of his solo career, where records like “Land of the Midnight Sun”, “Elegant Gypsy” and “Casino”, were amongst the highest selling records of any instrumental artist at that time. Al Di Meola continues to make, with respect, startling achievements in music pioneering while the decline of U.S. radio continues to elude most interesting contemporary music.
Al Di Meola, again and again, reveals himself as a seasoned gifted contemporary composer and a player of deepening grace and evocative lyricism. He has been continually sited by many of the top prominent Music critics around the world for his virtuosic guitar work and compositions. Al’s intrigue with complex rhythmic syncopation combined with provocative lyrical melodies always incorporating, sophisticated harmony at the root of these serious but heart felt works is central and foremost.

I will tel you in 2012 what WAS the album of the year of 2011. [2] though they usually mean "so far" in the year, which is kinda obvious usually.

For the record, it's no longer my fave of the year, Matana Roberts destroyed everything else released this year I have heard so far.

I find the new album to be much more varied and eclectic than usual. I mean, Elegant Gypsy is still is best album by so damn far, but I didn't expect Pursuit to have so many added instruments and subtle genre blends. It's almost ambient at times, and I like the less latin/more mellow feel (which by his standards, is sorta self-experimental)

The new album "Pursuit.." is just okay. I've heard much better from Al.
