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.
