@stuartk: Love The Hellecasters! I saw them live once, opening for Michael Nesmith. Their first two albums were on Nesmith's label Pacific Arts Audio.
Who is your favorite instrumentalist or instrumental group?
I enjoy a good instrumental track. One of my earliest favorites that I recall was back in '75 "Journey of the Sorcerer" by Eagles. Since then I've discovered:
Bella Fleck-group
The Vestbo Trio
Ray Montford-guitar
Fausto Mesolella-guitar
Charly Antolini- drums
Antonio Forcione-guitar
Alexander Motovilov- solo piano
