Have lived with these new recommendations for the past week and in My Opinion:
Trace Bundy - Gorgeous acoustic guitar harmonics and textures, ever evolving arrangements and spins, all wrapped up in a wonderful recording-Very Nice Indeed!
Erick Mongrain - Not as engaging as Bundy, but a somewhat darker and steady flow of great acoustical streaming of musical genius.
Tsutoshi Tamamoto - Brilliant classical jazz trio in a small nicely recorded venue that displays extreme talent and deep emotional creativity-Superb musical listening!!
I Love music, but confess to owning too many (20 or so) "test CD's", but that's okay because they all use Superb Recorded Music as demonstration tools. My most recent and "the best" I have is simply a stalwart of 14 excellent recordings on Chesky Records respectively called, "The Ultimate Demonstration Disk". I like to hear what the best recordings in music has to offer, then proceed to making full disc purchases.
I was also recently introduced to an acoustical guitar virtuoso and so far, have 5 of his stunning celebrated CD's...All by Tommy Emmanuel! His emotional conviction and energy throughout ever song and genre he touches is spell bounding. What an amazing talent, would Love to see him Live in Concert but for now, the S1 NrT's transport him into my music room any time I'm ready!!!
