Any Foro members out there who play some Brazilian material and/or enjoy Brazilian guitarists? I like Carlos Barbosa-Lima, who was quite popular from the '60s to the '80s, and who still performs. He combined classical with jazz and came up with some very nice Brazilian sounds on the classical guitar. I once had the honor of meeting him. Living in the Washington, DC area, I have been a flamenco guitar student of Paco de Malaga for several years. One day I entered Paco's old guitar shop and studio, the Guitar Gallery, for my lesson. Paco and Carlos were sitting there talking guitars and I joined them. We carried on for about half an hour before Carlos left and I proceeded with my lesson. It was an interesting encounter. Cheers, Bill
