The metal work of CROW'SCLAW and Demetori. I also like Yuki Kajiura's work, especially her work on the Madoka Magica series.
Oh, and the guitar work of Agustin Barrios.

Every song by Trace Bundy is the best song I've ever heard. Look him up. That man makes his guitar come alive.

I do too. That whole album is great. Remember Baby Elephant Walk? That was another Mancini song from Hatari.

For me, Mancini is a genius!...remember Exodus? one of my fave books and movie............it STILL makes me tear up...

I used to have that album. It was a dandy, thats for sure.

Lately Ive been listening to 50's and 60's guitar instrumentals. Link Wray, Dick Dale and the Del-Tones, The Astronauts, The Darts, The De-Fenders, Deuce Coupes, Ventures, etc. Brings back some memories. I had an old girl friend who was really into that stuff. She had stacks of those records, she would call me and say Ive got the latest record by The Frantics or some other group, you gotta hear it. Fun times.

Yeah, that was a good one. Ive cot a CD of it by The Ventures. Another one from that era was Mexico by Bob Moore.

Being from New York, do you remember Manhattan Spirtual by Reg Owen? That was a favorite of mine.
