Orange and Blue was first released in 1994 and is a remarkable testament of Al Di Meola's unique sense of swing. The legendary guitarist recorded the album on the Al Di Meola Jazz Guitar, a custom hollow-body guitar designed in collaboration with Gibson, which allowed him a warmer tone to add to his established signature sound. The album itself is a tasteful collection of explorative compositions, with standout songs such as "Chilean Pipe Song" further cementing Al Di Meola's growth as a versatile writer and gifted guitarist.
