Album Description

From the first glourious strains of Al Caiola's guitar and strings, your heart will be swept along and completely captivated. Mr. Caiola has never been more brillant in his masterful guitar performance, or his superb arrangements of truly beautiful music. This recording is the highlight of his long, illustrious, and successful career. A brilliant, assortment of romantic latin music, played with the magical touch of Al Caiola on guitar. Al Caiola's remarkable talent is at its very best when bathing these latin ballads with his string arrangements and his ever-golden guitar. The pristine clarity, and the warm, splendid mix of Al's unique sound and performance, make for moments of enchanting listening.

Sensual "take me away" music!.......2007-04-17

This is the best CD of Latin love songs ever produced. The string
orchestrations flow like silk while the Latin rhythms sway you like a
warm tropical breeze. It reminds me of dancing under a starry, velvety
night sky on the terrace of a little cantina in Manzanillo, Mexico one
summer night. Unforgettable!

I'm Not Italian But I Love It!.......2006-08-20

Yes, I'm not Italian but I love it! The songs on this CD are just wonderful.
Starting with track 1, "Be True to Me (Sabor a Mi)" passing true track 5, "Magic Is the Moonlight (Te Quiero Dijiste)", 12 "Morning of the Carnival (Manhã de Carnaval)", 16 "One (Uno)"; all just a PLEASURE to listen to. Al Caiola's guitar playing is phenomenal. I absolutely recommend it. This one really deserves a five stars ratings.
I also recommend his album "Italian Gold - Treasured Collection", another SUPERB Five stars.

Oh, Al!.......2002-09-07

Oh, Al! This is such a wonderful CD. When I come in at night worn out from work, I get a cup of coffee, stretch out in my favorite easy chair, kick off my shoes and listen to Al Caiola. I own a few of his records. It's nice to have his music on CD, and now that I have one-it's like good chocolate! I can't buy just one, I will buy others!

In the early 1970's I worked with a 'Salsa' band. I was hired because I played piano, organ, and accordian.

Sabor a Mi was popular on the latin radio stations, and I learned it from an early recording. Later, I learned other music, all latin or soft jazz from listening to keyboard players, but I also listened to Al Caiola. He has thrilled audiences with his guitar. He's a true stylist. You can listen to him, and you will know who's playing. He is very distinctive, and has both the technical skills and the natural talent to make his recordings interesting and beautiful. If you've never heard Mr. Caiola play, then do yourself a favor and buy this CD. It is lovely, it's romantic! Oh, Al!

Magnificent.......2007-07-03

Music is an important part of my life and Al Caiola has been a part of that from the time I was able to earn my own money to buy my first LP which coincidently was Al's "Tuff Guitar". I still have about ten vinyl albums of Al Caiola which I have loved for years but when I came across this compilation album I grabbed it. The feeling of well being that came over me from the first listen is repeated each and every time I put it on. This is truly feel good music from an artist who has specialised in sublime guitar solos for over thirty years. I love it and you will too.

Behind the scenes artistry.......2004-04-07

While guitar names such as Duane Eddy, Chet Atkins, Santo and Johnny and others are much more familiar to fans of the early age of rock and roll, the sound of Al Caiola is very much a part of the music of that era. Only two of his single releases dented the top 100 of the pop charts but his albums were a part of the music of the 60's for the entire decade. And his guitar can be heard on many of the tracks of big recording stars of the era such as Frankie Avalon ("Venus" and "De De Dinah"), Fabian, Bobby Vinton, Connie Francis and others. Some of the most recognizable tunes he recorded were TV and motion picture themes along with covers of recordings made popular by other artists. This first-ever collection of his works gathers many of his single releases including his two hits, "The Magnificent Seven" and "Bonanza" along with album sides. Here, Raven, the small independent Australian reissue label, has put a massive 33 tracks onto a single CD offering a decade-spanning retrospective of Caiola's work. The sound quality is respectable with many tracks in stereo - the exceptions being 3,5,6,8-11,14,17,20-22,24,25,27,31. A twelve-page liner notes booklet with a history of the artist along with pics and illustrations completes the package. For a great sampling of the sound that drove much of the pop music of the 60's, this is definitely a worthwhile addition to the collector's CD library.

Al Caiola "Bonanza!".......2002-09-04

Finally, a CD full of Al Caiola's 1960's United Artists recordings! I have the original vinyl LP of "Tuff Guitar" and I have not been able to play it for years because I no longer have a record player.... This fantastic CD has the "Tuff Guitar" title track, plus 32 more excellent songs that capture Caiola's genius musicianship and unique guitar artistry during the 60s decade. The original "Bonanza" theme song on this CD is worth the price alone. The sound quality is very good, plus, there are great photos and highly detailed liner notes in the CD booklet. Thanks to Raven records in Australia for releasing this CD! A must for any guitar fan!

Album Description

Al Caiola and the Manhattan Guitars bring us an exciting new, innovative instrumental concept. What you will be hearing is an all guitar array of musicians playing Big Band Classics. Five guitars playing the sax section parts. Six guitars playing the brass section parts, and a rhythm section of bass and rhythm guitars, playing piano and drums. The musicians are an all star group of players who choose to remain anonymous, and just do a "buddy" session for their pal Al Caiola. Al and the Manhattan Guitars are playing the precise solos and arrangements scored for these fabulous and memorable original recordings. Al, playing all the leads and solos, had the performance time of his life, and it sounds like it. The uniqueness of this recording will open the eyes and ears of a lot of young people whose main musical interest is the world of guitar. The high school bands, the high school and college jazz bands, the marching bands that are all comprised of young musicians that have all had some association with some of these classics, will hear what can be done when you want to explore musically, something new and refreshing. For people of an older age, who are familiar with these great classics, we believe they will be thrilled and excited to hear these great standards in a brand new mood. "In the Mood", of today
