CD Reviews

A timeless snapshot of the classical guitar sound.

"Two disk set, entitled "Spanish Guitar Classics", contains 40 tracks. 14 by Andre Segovia, 13 by Carlos Montoya and 13 by Paco Di Lucia. Unfortunately, there is no write up on the songs. The sound clarity however is as good as I've heard for these classics."

"The first 4 tracks and most of disc 1 consist of scratchy poorly-recorded live renditions by Segovia, interrupted by coughing - all of which are available on better anthologies. Torre Bermeja is the worst recording I've heard of the Albeniz classic. The booklet is a complete joke, containing absolutely no information whatsoever, track listings (composers, dates etc.). The 'rare photographs' touted on the front amount to one pretty standard pic of Segovia in middle age. I paid about £5 for this in a remainder sale at HMV, and that was about £4 too much. Do yourself a favour & buy The Art of Segovia, or Spanish Guitar Music by John Williams if you want an introduction to guitar transcriptions of classic spanish piano music like Albeniz. Disc 2 - Montoya & Paco de Lucia is OK, if you like flamenco-style, but this 2-cd set is glossily packaged dross."
