5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Brazilian guitar work!, February 15, 2002

This review is from: Walking on Coals (Audio CD)

A dazzling all-instrumental by a lightning-fast old-time guitar player from the northeastern Brazilian state of Paraiba. This disc opens with several tour de force performances, full of astonishing dexterity and playful improvisation. Canhoto was 65 when he recorded this album, yet his playing had a facility and speed that few youngsters could hope to match. Fans of acoustic guitar work should find themselves dazzled by this little gem. Recommended!
