Customer Review: Another great recording from David Russell and Telarc. Just listen Grieg pieces and Galeron by Sojo. No more words needed. Every year a new David Russell CD....... Thank you Telarc.......
Customer Review: I have almost all of David Russel's CDs, and many other CDs of Latin American guitar music. This is my favorite in both categories for about 2 years, now! His rendition of Cardoso's Vals Peruano is amazing. It'll make you sit up and say, "What???? How did he do THAT???". In his hands, Reis' nice... more info

Customer Review: This is a great CD. I haven't bought one of Emmy Lou's albums in quite some time, but this one is vintage Emmy Lou. (Sorry, Emmy Lou! The music is vintage, not you!)
Customer Review: The choice of pieces is exceptional but the sound quality of the recording is pretty awful. It sounds like the microphone was covered with a thick blanket. The guitar Russell plays is a Dammann but the quality of recording is so poor it might as well be a cigar box. Shame, and you know what, it's... more info
Customer Review: This recording contains the only in-print versions of Danza Paraguaya Nos. 2 & 3. Berta Rojas covered the 2nd dance on the now out-of-print Intimate Barrios and Kristinn Árnason covered the 3rd dance on a now out-of-print A.C. Classics recording. Even the 3-volume Naxos set which is... more info
