This album recorded live during a concert in Monteprandone (AP) on October 24, 2007, features Fausto Mesolella (guitar and loop pedal) and Ferruccio Spinetti playing double bass. Two great artists but above all, two great friends.

Here is Ferruccio Spinetti's thought:

"When I joined Avion Travel in 1990 I was 20, Fausto 18 years older than me. In almost 30 years of 'music' and life spent together, first of all with Avion Travel, but also with the Nada trio and in other collaborations, Fausto taught me a lot, both musically and humanly. Even for Avion Travel themselves he has always been a point of reference both in musical writing and in the production of our records. He was also a very good studio engineer.

"When Giulio Cesare Ricci sent me these files that Fausto had sent him years ago, extrapolated from a live concert in duo, the emotion was great. Together with Alessandro Guasconi of the Virus studio in Siena, we preferred in the editing and mixing phase, to also keep some inaccuracies or off-key notes, in order to print this live that once again testifies to Fausto's uniqueness as a guitarist, starting from his unique and unmistakable sound with the his beloved 'Chet Atkins' and his way of understanding music at 360 degrees, ranging from pop, to rock, to jazz, to his original songs. He, who did not like to define himself as a jazz musician, improvises a lot in these tracks. I hope that you can relive for about 43 minutes, perhaps with your eyes closed, the uniqueness of this live." — Ferruccio

The Master has been implemented by transferring the Analog Master realized with the Ampex ATR 102, 2 tracks, 1/2 inch, 30ips, into the dCS A/D Converter DSD. The Mastering for the SACD was made by Giulio Cesare Ricci using the Signoricci's analog and valve system.
