Christopher Parkening is fantastic, too. Missed seeing him in concert last year...Cry, cry... but, Segovia will always remain my favorite. His technique is distinctive and I can usually pick it out from other artists. Glad to see we have FReepers with good taste...I remember when they were arguing over who the best guitarist ever when George Harrison died. Not really the same class!

I'm pretty eclectic..."It's all good"
(Even if I can appreciate the "high-brow" or "elitist" approach to the more
technically demanding styles of music.)
I think the reason I stumbled on to John Williams first was the song that I think was called
"The Love Theme" from "The Deer Hunter".
That song takes my breath away every time I hear it.
I think it was originally titled something like "Walking Stick" and done by
Weissburg (?).
Just the kind of music that can make even "real men" cry at it's elemental beauty.
(OK, that's as pretentious and touch-feely as this Okie will get...)
