Search - Steve Baughman, Robin Bullock :: Celtic Guitar Summit: Groovemasters, Vol. 9

A mellow Celtic guitar duet delight

(4 out of 5 stars)

"As a life long classical and fingerstyle guitar fan (oh...if I could only play....), I set a high standard for guitar composition, arrangment and performance to be pleased with a CD. Robin Bullock and Steve Baughman deliver on all fronts.



The overall mood of the CD is mellow and soothing. Bullock and Baughman mix excellent fingerstyle technique and Celtic style pull offs / hammers with occassional light strumming to create a gentle journey to a breezy Irish hilltop. Latin elements flavor a number of tunes, e.g. Rumbutan Lady, gently maintaining the relaxing mood and continuity of the overall performance.



This is a perfect CD to enjoy watching a sunset with your significant other."

Celtic Guitar Perfection!

"The acoustic guitar playing on "Celtic Guitar Summit" is as close to perfection as I have ever heard. The arrangements are exquisite and the playing is flawless. From the first seconds of the opening track you know this is something special. There are so many CDs of acoustic guitar but so much of it is mediocre and soulless particularly with the almost endless Michael Hedges guitar-slapping imitators, whereas this is in a very select company of Tony McManus and Martin Simpson for example - right up there on the summit."
