Peter, I found that solo choro guitar music was a nice thing as well--tuneful and complex enough but not overly virtuosic to give you RSI just to learn it! Some names to check out: Joao Pernambuco, Dilermando Reis. Ernesto Nazareth (Odeon) a pianist you could possibly transcribe to guitar, and Villa Lobos' Suite Popular has some excellent examples that aren't all that hard to play. Moving on to Argentina, check out Victor Villandangos' Naxos recordings. Great playing and you will find some things to try. Lauro wrote a bunch of great Venezuelan Valses, and they are approachable if not easy to play up to tempo. (For example, Natalia) El Diablo Suelto by Heraclio Fernandez is hard, but sounds cool! I like this whole genre. It's a nice compromise for interest, challenge, yet a more universal appeal for more audiences. You can also show up with a percussionist and, viola!, a duo! I wish more flamencos would put together some rumbas in this way.
