Product description

Al Di Meola's "Kiss My Axe," released in 1991, is a dynamic and intricate exploration of jazz fusion, infused with rich world music influences, particularly flamenco. This album showcases Al Di Meola's exceptional guitar skills, blending technical prowess with melodic sophistication. The 13-track collection, spanning over an hour, offers a diverse range of compositions, from the rhythmic intensity of "Kiss My Axe" to the evocative storytelling of "Morocco" and the delicate interludes that punctuate the album. Recorded between September 1988 and May 1991, the album benefits from a crisp, dynamic sound quality, with a phenomenal bass presence and detailed highs that highlight the musicianship. "Kiss My Axe" is a testament to Al Di Meola's ability to create music that is both technically impressive and deeply engaging, making it a standout in his discography.

This 1998 Limited Edition Reissue LP is pressed on 180g vinyl.

  • Stunning Soundstage, Crystal Clear

    5 out of 5 stars
    hulanwxfiavoeSeptember 18, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Incredible pressing! I'm not familiar with the "tomato" version, but this one is absolutely stunning. The soundstage is vast, it's incredibly dynamic, crystal clear, and completely silent. I'm thrilled with my purchase.

  • Pleased with Purchase

    5 out of 5 stars
    xwepgimzAugust 3, 2025United States🇺🇸

    I purchased this edition a few days back and my copy sounds amazing. Really pleased with it.

  • 3D Soundstage Delight

    5 out of 5 stars
    copxixlJune 28, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Wow, this record sounds amazing! The 3D effect is insane and the soundstage is massive compared to those hi-res streaming files. Couldn't be happier!

  • 2022 Edition Impressive Sound Quality

    5 out of 5 stars
    PuyhurBantJune 12, 2024United Kingdom🇬🇧

    The 2022 edition is anything but "a Disaster". My copy (sent from jpc Germany) is spotless, perfectly centered, and the vinyl is incredibly flat. There's no surface noise during quiet moments or anywhere else, and the mastering is fantastic and a real joy to listen to. No dull compressions, excellent soundstage, great highs, and a warm, powerful bass. Compared to the original Type IV Metal Tape, this vinyl release sounds even better. No regrets here. (Played on a complete 80's Philips Black Tulip setup with the GP412 and original D67 stylus). I reckon negative feedback on this release probably comes from owners of the first pressing who want to maintain the value of their investment.

  • Japan Jimco Records Excels

    5 out of 5 stars
    isilxlvurMarch 6, 2024United States🇺🇸

    I must say, this Japan Jimco Records edition of Kiss my Axe is fantastic! I'm familiar with the Tomato (598.1078.20 Europe 1991) and Tomato (R2 79751 US 1991) releases, but neither of them can quite match the superb In-Akustik (INAK 700782 Germany 1998) version. This Japanese version has a distinct sound compared to the In-Akustik one, but it's certainly not inferior. Kudos for this amazing Japan CD! By the way, does anyone out there have any of the vinyl versions? It'd be great to hear your thoughts on them!
