Spanish Guitar

I believe they are her brothers.

Thanks again for the posts.

I've now had the chance to listen to several additional artists. Among those to whom I've listened, I most enjoyed John Williams (El Diablo Suelto and Spanish Guitar Music), Jesse Cook (Vertigo), and Jason Vieaux (Guitar Recital). Vieaux is particularly interesting with some unusual melodies. My wife finds John Williams music to be fun and energetic.

I look forward to hearing others.

John, it seems you've found some great music and have begun a journey of great enjoyment. If no one has mentioned Sabicas yet, make sure to sample some of his stylings along the way. Have fun!

Many here have mentioned Strunz & Farah and rightly so. I had reviewed it earlir on Audiogon and you can check it out via the link next to my ID.

Another CD which is also repeatedly mentioned in this thread is Gino D'Auri - Flamenco Passion, which is also a beautiful album with killer sonics.

Despite of all the lovely albums mentioned and knowing your wife likes John Williams, you may or may not know this but Concerto de Aranjuaz is considered by some as the best music written for the guitar. Rodrigo who composed it in early 20th century was spanish and was blind since age 7. What an acomplishment.

I don't think anyone mentioned the album "Friday night in San Francisco" which is probably the best from the trio Delucia, Dimeola and McLaughlin. My apologies in advance if it was already mentioned on the thread.

good call by Quadophile . . . "Friday night in San Francisco" by Delucia, Dimeola and McLaughlin has been mentioned in other Guitar threads here. I finally picked up a copy. It won't disappoint. The first cut will blew me away in the first minute, and it's an 11 minute track.
