Faya I have heard them on Echoes before, I like their sound a lot, very nice layering, and very coherent. Usually when you have a trio playing, you get 'who has the biggest you know what' syndrome. Have you heard any of David Pritchard's music? He plays Classical & fingerstyle, one of his pieces is the last piece in the pumping nylon repetoire book. It is a beautiful piece. On his other pieces, he uses overlapping acoustic guitars. LAGQ covered his piece 'Stairs' on their new record Spin. I think you would like it.

Ok, here is a link to their Echoes living room concert. Took me a few to find it. Fan, I think you'll like it too,

Faya -
you have some good taste in tunes, what else are you listening to these days? I have some Duquende, Tomatito, OL's Semana and the new Vicente Amigo in heavy rotation right now. I am burning a hole in the soleares on Vicente's new one, it is very very good. And when I need a break from nylon - I got plenty of Steve Earle!

[Faya]

Hey dennis,.........at the moment in the mix is......
OL "Opium",
Bjork "Hyper Balled re-mixes and Medulla",
Rodrigo "Gypsy Passions",
Hevia "Tierra de Nadie",

Radio Tarifa "Fiebre"
Chuscales "Midnight in Madrid"

Nice, I have a few of those too. I have not heard the new Chuscales yet, but I liked the one with Capricho Arabe on it, I don't know the name off the top of my head, but it was good stuff. I saw BGQuartet two years ago, they were excellent as well.

[Faya]

Cool !.................that Chuscales one is called.........."Encuentros del Alma"

another one of my favs........ :wink:

Ya know there's even a song on there that Ottmar plays on....... 8)
