I got the record when I was 13 years old...and never again has any music had a deeper impact on me. I love metal and hard rock but this one and only album makes me dream away like no other. Thanks soooo much for putting it online . Cheers from Gemany
I have no dispute of or about Al DiMeolas talent...He was a huge influence on Me in My younger years...His acoustic sound is always beautiful but his Electric sound has always sounded muddy and fuzzy to Me unless he plays clean. But no denying the guy is great and deserves every accolade given.
I was driving alone down a rural country road in the midwest, around 1 in the morning, about 25 years ago, when this came on the radio. Of all places! The next morning I had to get the record. I'll always remember that night drive...
@jobaecker isnt it amazing how some songs at some moments make such a deep impact and then you just hope/pray to that that you will never forget that moment with the feeling it gets you
@tresojos I know exactly what you are talking about. I will never forget the first time I heard Al Di Meola.. My dad gave me the Cielo E Terra cassette. I put it in my walkman and fell asleep to it. Several times that evening I woke up half in dreamstate to it and it was the most amazing and beautiful thing I had ever heard to this day.
I believe it's one of Di Meola's best. I had the privilege of actually seeing the Al Di Meola project perform the entire album Soaring Through A Dream when it just issued, at the San Francisco Warfield Theatre, it was a most memorable performance, and definitely Aierto and Steve Gadd were magic makers that night---they all were! My brother snatched my copy of the album for Al and Aierto autographed it, friends of his, and left for Asia, where I reside, without it :(.

...one of my absolute favorites!
Especially the piano part from Phil Markowitz from 6:15-8:10.
If I ever played piano, this would be one of the things I would target to learn.

I know Al from the old RTF days and had all of his early releases.
yes, this is a fine composition. Airto was in this group; then it was swinging.

I've been listening to this album for years and never tire of it.
