The disc is very much in the same spirit as the immensely popular "Friday Night In San Francisco" discs from a few years back, but without quite so much of the heavy Flamenco influences in evidence on those discs. One listen to the opening track, Bootsmann, had me hooked - the tune starts out with relatively simple interplay between the two guitarists (Wegener on the left and Klunker on the right). It accelerates midway through to become a full-blown tour-de-force of intricate finger-picking and harmonic and stylistic changes - I was totally blown away by what I was hearing! These guys can flat out play, and not unlike the late, great Michael Hedges, use their guitars to create sounds that easily made me hit the rewind button repeatedly for another listen - it's hard to believe that some of the music made here is coming only from two guitars!

Although a stereo-only hybrid SACD, the disc is in every way demonstration quality, and the superb recording captures much of the intimacy and ambience of the performance venue. This one is definitely a keeper, and very highly recommended!
