Inspired as much by Italian folk music and Pat Metheny as it is by Brazilian,
Spanish and Cuban
music, Touchwood is one of Forcione's finest studio albums. The album was
engineered by Peter Williams, co-director of Dublin's Windmill Lane studios and
responsible for many U2 recording sessions. The album features guest vocal
appearances by Sabina Sciubba and gypsy singer Diego el Cigala, star of the
Spanish Flamenco scene
