Music that touches the heart!!

Look what I discovered!!

In a previous post, I had mentioned my love for music and my desire to learn guitar....

Now, I was scourching through my vast library of music, well actually only 12 GB of it, I know ppl who can easily claim that figure with an extra zero. But I think the collection I have is pretty good. And add to that, the vast resource which I listen to online (coolmusic.com), I had enough on my hand for a year. But nevertheless, I was getting a little bored of the Indian and American artists, in fact, for that matter, with all music in English and Hindi. So, I took the help of another 2 American gifts to mankind to search for music, which was more classical and unadulterated with modern styles.
The 2 gifts were "youtube" and "globalization". And I found the music I always wanted to hear. You must have heard it a lot in the works of many a great bands like the Eagles. But this one was pure and classical.

The instrument is the spanish guitar and I chose my personal favorite, the acoustic version ....the music ofcourse spanish!!

and the artist, 'John Clarke' who, so rightly, is trying to reach a global audience with the help of youtube, has posted some amazing stuff...

Here...have a look yourself!!

And am not gonna stop here...music is without boundaries and am gonna explore everything from Chinese to Malaysian to African to Latino to French to Italian to Russian and not to forget the unexplored and almost obscure but brilliant works in Indian music as well!!
