Location: Chicago | What is your favorite but VERY OBSCURE acoustic guitar masterpiece? Gotta augment my music library, guys.
("Obscure" can mean hard-to-get, bootleg, forgotten or simply not known!)
Found this last month: ZEN HOUSE Shawn Lane and Jonas Hellborg on Ovations acoustics: beautiful!

I see it is listed under Hellborg. That would explain my lack of success because I have been seaching under Shawn Lane. |

Also check Michael Romeo. He's a good friend and one hell of an amazing guitarist! |

Location: Upper Left USA | Call me unexperienced but I immediately think about the song "Oh well" in an early Fleetwood Mac album. I think Peter Green was the guitarist.
Cliff? Help? |

Location: Chicago | I totally agree about Peter Green, especially "Oh Wekk"; I guess I just don't think of that as obscure: it's one of the most beautiful guitar passages in 60s rock. Give me the shivers.
long live the Green Manalishi!

Location: Tennessee | "Don't Let Your Goodbye Stand" by Honk from the soundtrack to Five Summer Stories.
Aside: Moody or anyone else in southern Orange County ... Honk was a great band out of Laguna Beach and redefined the surf sound in the mid '70s. They still play together as a group from time to time and do an annual reunion concert, usually at the Coase House in San Juan Capistrano. |

| Not masterpieces, but check out if you get the chance the playing of a guy called Cacho Tirao who played on the live Astor Piazzolla album "adios nonino". Great player.
As is a guy called Ferenc Snetburger (I am not joking) who is that rare thing a Sinti gypsy (like Django) but from Hungary. He is signed to Enja Records in Hungary, but I've never been able to find anything to buy with him as a leader. I have a great album called Gypsy Colours by the gypsy sax player Tony Lakatos which I'm sure you would find interesting. Ferenc puts in some wonderful fills and trills. He can obviously really play. |
