Classical, Spanish & South American Guitar Jewels


I like the Guitar and find it is relatively easily reproduced with my smaller speakers so the "sound" is generally very acceptable.
I am hoping to find albums versus best of compilations(still welcome); whether on vinyl or CD. I'll start out with 2 CD's I enjoy. Easy listening.
1. Music of the Brazilian Masters, Concord Picante label from Concord Jazz. CCD-4389. Laurindo Almeida, Carlos Bosa-Lima, Charlie Byrd. It's nice to hear the different guitars,playing styles and even strings.
2. Portrait of John Williams. CBS Records Masterworks. MK 37791. John Williams.
I hope someone enjoys these and has suggestions for other treasures. More to follow.

The Romeros were extremely popular guitar players with many, many albums put out together and individually. There has always been a distrust of populism in academic circles; it is part of being in the club. Not that a distrust of populism is completely unearned, vide Justin Beber.
Tosta, I can understand that. Many musicians I know don't like Mozart--but I don't think that means he's not good. What do you think of Pepe and Angel?
Thx Rja. I will be checking these out soon. In a 9-5 course all this week.(meditation : )
Veridian, I agree with you. But,remember, Elvis was most unpopular for a good while. Now, his singing is known to be genius.
And Elvis's voice one of the finest;imho. Are there any with that caliber voice today--male or female? "None" that I know of,I'll say it again,-none.... Patsy Cline + Jim Reeves had great voices too. I find too many popular females of the last 20 yrs have been 'screamers'. Yuck. the men have been better (naturally :-).
