La strana coppia. Lo straordinario BIll Frisell ed il latino Vinicius Cantuaria in un disco composto a quattro mani, i due chitarristi mischiano mestiere ed esperienza ed esplorano un mondo musicale completamente diverso. Sopratutto per Frisell l'album è un banco di prova per il suo eclettismo, mentre Cantuaria ( che aveva già avuto Bill ospite in alcuni dischi ) affina le sue corde. Vitale ed originale.

This is the two-CD 1991 edition from Music and Arts.

In later editions of the release, the track listing is incorrect from disc 1/track 27 to the end of the disc, and from disc 2/track 11 to the end of the disc. In this listing, I've given the titles exactly as they appear on the insert.

Twenty-page insert booklet includes notes by Don Asher.

Discs are marked DDD, which isn't possible, because these recordings were made between 1935 and 1943.

Jim Galloway ai sassofoni, Milt Hinton al basso, Gus Johnson alla batteria e Ralph Sutton al piano.
