First heard Carlos Paredes and his Guitarra Portugesa on ABC (Aust) Radio National and was blown away. The CD received was everything I had hoped for, there is something about Carlos' music which goes straight to my soul! I have always loved Spanish guitar but this CD has converted me to Portuguese. Maybe it is the vibrato and as well the notes are particularly clear. 2 people found this helpful.
