I saw them not so long ago on their 25th anniversary reunion tour. They were even better ... if that is possible. And they played all the tracks from the "Romantic Warrior" and "Light As Feather" albums. It was pure magic. And the night I saw them was Chick Corea's 65th birthday. They talked on stage about when Al Di Meola first joined the band ... he was 19 years old then. I have Romantic Warrior on vinyl and CD ... and I will buy it on whatever audio formats the future holds in store. Just love that record. When I first saw the OGWT performance back then I was blown away. I had already played the album to death but was knocked out at how easy they made it look live.
