专辑简介：
古典吉他音乐经过几代人的摸索、变革，似乎已经有了一套定式，从演奏方式，到曲目范围，甚至於情绪表达都被人为地规划出某种标準或套路，我们不禁发问：世事轮迴，古典吉他音乐是不是走入了一个新的误区，是否人们对吉他的思维再次遭遇百年前的桎梏，而令应有的创新和发展淹没於习惯和定式的枷锁之中呢？
也许是出於这样的远见和担心，二十一世纪的吉他英雄们正在以前所未有的冒险精神为吉他开创着新的天地。
巴鲁埃科在这张专辑中与具有传奇色彩的三位摇滚/爵士吉他手合作演绎11首现代作品(其中9首为演奏者的原创或改编作品)，此外还有两首独奏作品。Al Di Meola的音乐充满迷情与幻想色彩。一首《越过海市蜃楼》便尽显旖旎之姿，令人心旌荡漾。与深紫乐队成员Steve Morse合作的《卡伐蒂娜》令人再次重温《猎鹿人》的动人笔触：酒吧中、婚礼上、山林间的快乐、喧闹、写意与越南丛林中被逼以佐轮手枪赌命供人取乐的场景相对比，还有那炮火硝烟、血肉横飞的战斗之后甜美的吉他奏出的悲伤无奈旋律，以及目睹战友在同自己的赌博中不幸中弹，鲜血汩汩流出的强烈衝击，都令人沉浸在刻骨的疼痛与矛盾之中。根据维拉-罗伯斯练习曲第一号改编的Wolvesville(《狼乡》，即Villa-Lobos的意译)中摇滚吉他声部展现了即兴创作的狂野魅力，同严谨的古典声部相映成趣。
英文简介：
Classical guitar lovers looking for a jazzier change of pace shouldn't be disappointed by Nylon & Steel, Manuel Barrueco's album of duets with Al Di Meola, Steve Morse, and Andy Summers. But ironically enough, it's the two solo tunes that bookend this disc, Barrueco's "Odeon" and his solo guitar arrangement of Aaron Copland's "Rodeo," that are the real highlights. His three cuts with Di Meola are a mixed affair, but the interplay between the duo seems to gel on the longer "Azzurra." Steve Morse's electric guitar is loaded with Bill Frisell-like effects, but on "Wolvesville," he and Barrueco create an inspired and unleashed fusion between rock and classical music (the inspiration for the piece is a Villa-Lobos étude). Three mellow collaborations with Summers round out this set of intriguing guitar instrumentals. --Jason Verlinde
