"State
of the Art" Acoustic Guitar Music
from Acoustic Music Records
Acoustic
Music Record's catalogue is devoted almost exclusively to acoustic
guitar music. Their roster of insanely gifted acoustic guitar
players includes: Duck Baker, Woody Mann, Stefan Grossman, Tim
Sparks, Pierre Bensusan and Bob Brozman. To mention just a few.
Founded 12 years ago by the German virtuoso guitarist Peter Finger,
Acoustic Music Records is going from strength to strength. At
the start the label was laughed at. Acoustic guitar music! They
were told there couldn't possibly be a market for such a specialist
musical area. How wrong the critics were.
Today
Acoustic Music Records is a melting pot of seriously hot acoustic
guitar music, a veritable crucible of fingerstyle excellence where
all musical styles are catered for including: blues, jazz, classical,
world music and hard to define cross-overs. Of course when presented
with such a cornucopia of mind-boggling talent, the question is
where do you start? Which players do you get into? Well, an excellent
place to start is with their Acoustic Guitar Highlights series.
These
taster CD's feature a collection of tracks from different guitarists
and are a great way of deciding which players you'd like to hear
more of. And even better, they only cost around $5. A bargain if
ever there was one.
The
nice thing about Acoustic Music Records is that while they are dedicated
to showcasing the work of some of the world's very finest acoustic
guitarists, they have also thought of us mere mortals. They produce
tuition material, instructional books and CD's and video workshops.

"Instrumentally
Yours"
Rick Payne (Mp3 CD)
Rick
Payne is best known as an acoustic bluesman. He is widely
regarded as one of the world's finest acoustic slide players.
However, this is not the be all and end all of Rick Payne's
guitar playing by any means. Not surprising when you consider
his classical guitar training. "Instrumentally Yours"
is a fabulous showcase of all kinds of fingerstyles. A heady
mix of acoustic guitar flavours here, including Celtic, Elizabethan
lute stylings, Folk, Blues, Ragtime and Jazz. "Instrumentally
Yours" amazes and delights the listener as it veers this way and that on its magical, musical mystery tour of contemporary and old school fingerstyles.
