"Johnny Asia hails from Woodstock, N.Y., so the cosmic energy may just be in the water. Whatever the source, Asia's transcendent, genre-spanning guitar journeys chart new musical cartographies, juxtaposing Django Reinhardt-like hard swing with dangling fusion harmonics and the space-age chord structures of John McLaughlin." - Editor's review, music.download.com
"Johnny's music is universal in the truest sense of the term. It embraces the musics of this world and anticipates those yet to be discovered in the future. Johnny's riveting performance transported the audience across time to places MTV can only dream about." - Joe McPhee, Jazz musician
"the mans' fusion of classic-flamenco-cosmological remains eternally memorable.....a cosmonaut to infinity... the music is a beatific mind-blow"- Kitty Montgomery, Daily Freeman, Kingston, NYREAD MORE

Very nice performance with a lot of improvisations in it.
I really enjoyed it!
Many greetings from Belgium!
I like this, right from the start. Pretty impressive for a live, more or less improvised (I'm assuming) performance.
