Joao Selva Maré Vai Subir

'Reunion Live' reunites three guitar giants for a sonic celebration that renews a tradition stretching back to 1996. Joe Satriani, Steve Vai and Eric Johnson inaugurated the G3 concept 28 years ago which put them on stage together for the first time ever. The G3 tour line up changed over the years, but in 2024, the original G3 reunited for a sold-out run of dates in the US. That experience is embodied in G3 'Reunion Live' (and much more than 'just' a live album). The format of the tour is mirrored here with a full set from each guitarist with their own band, followed by a full-on jam featuring all three. The individual repertoire is comprised of signature tunes from each guitarist such as Joe's 'Sahara', Steve's 'For the Love of God' and Eric's 'Cliffs of Dover'. The encore jam features covers from the likes of Hendrix and Clapton.

Recorded in New York City at Columbia Recording Studios on May 21, 1975. This CD contains previously released material.

The violinist Bruno Monteiro and the pianist Joao Paulo Santos return with a new CD, this time dedicated to the two Sonatas and the Five Melodies for violin and piano by Sergei Prokofiev. Three important works of this genre, they are however, distinct. The First Sonata is characterised by a sombre and combative atmosphere, while the Second radiates virtuosity and the composer's more sarcastic side. The Five Melodies, originally written for voice and piano, are short pieces that showcase the violin's lyrical and gentle side. Monteiro's playing was described by Gramophone as "full of verve and boldness, that tends to sweep listeners off their feet" while Santos performances have been called "splendid" by Musicweb International.

2009 live release from the guitar legend. "Where The Wild Things Are" was recorded live and filmed in high definition at the State Theatre in Minneapolis, MN during Steve Vai's recent Sound Theories Tour. "Where The Wild Things Are" features a world-class group of musicians, unlike any other band Steve has ever assembled: Alex DePue and Ann Marie Calhoun (violin), Bryan Beller (bass), Jeremy Colson (drums), Dave Weiner (guitar and sitar) and Zack Wiesinger (lap steel).

This track was spontaneously born at a soundcheck sometime in the mid 1990’s. The basic gist of the melody and chord changes were captured and put on the shelf. Sometime later when I was pulling potential tracks together for the Fire Garden album I came across this melody.
