Strunz & Farah - Americas (1992)

Genre: Jazz, World Fusion, Instrumental Virtuoso

The 1992 offering from this amazing guitar duo is entitled Americas, a CD which conjures images with music -- you'll be transported to lush tropical locales, beautiful remote islands and Amazonian rainforests. Rated by many Strunz and Farah fans as one of the group's best efforts, Americas once again features a number of top-notch musicians from around the world, including percussionist Juanito "Long John" Oliva and bassist Guillermo Guzman. Blazing intensity and passion are the watchwords as the pair deliver guitar music for an ever-widening audience. Americas earned the duo a Grammy nomination in 1992 in the World Music category. ~ Buy It at Lowest Price on Amazon

"Americas" is one of my all-time Favorite Records. As soon as it begins with "Caracol", you recognize immediately that something very special is going to happen. And it happens!

Here you can find a lot of Passion, Temperament and Wonderful Guitar Skills. "Americas" has sold over a half million copies and was 2 on the Billboard World Music Chart for months and was nominated for a Grammy in the World Music category in 1992. Strunz and Farah, the guitarists, come from very different Cultures. Jorge Strunz comes from Costa Rica and Ardeshir Farah from Iran. But it seems that in the musical ways, they are just like a soul in two bodies and this "cultural difference" can do nothing against their spiritual integration. "Americas" has a major Latin-flamenco taste while it's Iranian too! and I'm just wondering about that. Yes... We're different. but "Strunz and Farah" show us how similar we could be. But forget all of these for a moment, just let our souls dance passionately with their music! ~ Review by pmahtash @

Excellent! ...No words. This is a kind of old CD, from probably the best acoustic guitarists ever, since it's from the year 1992, but it's by far the best, and that's not just my opinion. When I first listened to it, I felt as if I were in another place, a superior place... I forgot all my problems and worries and just felt the music to the sense of it. My mind enjoying the true pleasures of life. This is more or less the effect it has on almost everyone, if not everyone (all the Strunz & Farah's actually, but this one highlighted.) If you are looking for a CD that's just perfect, has all the qualities an acoustic guitar can reach, definitely buy this one. Of course, this kind of music (Latin-guitar flamenco) is an acquired taste, although not many ears will refuse its exquisite taste. ~ Review by j_alejandro @
