Indispensable for any lover of acoustic guitar, incomparable musicianship, evocative and alchemical, almost beyond categorization. Not for the faint of heart, attention span challenged, or narrow-minded, the close listener is rewarded by the enchanting melodies, pulsing rhythms, and never-heard-before virtuosity. One of my all time favorites, someday perhaps yours also?

This is an album of blues, folk, and ragtime-styled instrumentals, no vocals. It is culled from various vinyl LPs, including Under The Volcano, which I bought in the 70's, originally on the Kicking Mule label. The music is lively and distinctly beautiful. It never fails to excite me.
Apparently, these two performers came together by accident when a German concert promoter billed them as a duo at a festival. There are an equal number of songs written by each of them on this CD. Just two acoustic guitars - great stuff!
