Guitar Masters 10 of 16 Lang, McLaughlin, Petteway, Reed, Ross

Still today people ask me about the old guitar torrents that I shared years ago at my first times at the Bay.
They often tell me that is difficult to find them all, cause the TPB search engine sucks, cause their trackers are dead and they seem deserted.
So I've decided to reshare them all with a unifying pattern in the name of the torrent:

Guitar Masters

followed by a progressive number, so those who are interested can find them easily.
They deal primarily with fingerstyle, and the albums they contain are not generally easy to find... so dont expect overall 320 bitrates.
The founding criterion here is to find and remember them as a document of great music of the past.

Enjoy :)

PETER LANG

I remember the first time I listened the famous Kottke, Fahey & Lang album...
It was my "ear opener" in fingerstyle guitar.

And I remember how I adored the third, less famous fellow of the trio: Peter Lang.

Pure country blues and crystal sounds from the past...

Besides the common techniques of fingerstyle he makes use of a distinctive hammering style "left-handed", with the neck of the guitar toward his right shoulder.
Dig his new age landscapes and atmospheres.

PRESTON REED

Preston Reed is an American fingerstyle guitarist.
   
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preston_Reed   
http://www.prestonreed.com/

First-time listeners to Preston Reed find it hard to believe it's only one guitarist and his instrument. He plays with fingers, thumbs, fists and hands at once, suggesting a whole band at work: drummer, keyboardist, bassist and several guitarists at once. Some of his tunes invoke impressions of rock bands and duelling guitars, but he is also a player of blues or ballads reminiscent of Bill Evans, one of his musical idols.

His guitar style is characterised by the use of open tunings and percussive effects he generates with both hands on various parts of the guitar body, he names them appropriately rim shots and bongo hits.

What follows is a collection of some of his albums... Enjoy...

DON ROSS

Don Ross is a Canadian fingerstyle guitarist noted for the emotion and intensity of his playing as well as his use of extended technique.
   
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Ross_(guitarist)   
http://www.gobyfish.com/

Ross names Bruce Cockburn, Leo Kottke, John Renbourn, Pierre Bensusan, Keith Jarrett, Egberto Gismonti and Pat Metheny as his main sources of inspiration. His advanced technique and his sure feeling for rhythm combine with uncommon ideas to make his style instantly recognizable. He often uses percussive techniques and plays intricate down- and upstroke patterns with his thumb. His use of acrylic nails give him a sharp and very defined tone.

What follows is a collection of some of his albums... Enjoy...
