Acoustic Guitar Duets is next release to feature Irish guitar master Louis Stewart
Following international acclaim for The Dublin Concert by Jim Hall and Louis Stewart, including a rave review from Downbeat magazine, Livia Records releases another guitar duo album featuring Louis Stewart, this time with Martin Taylor.
Originally released in 1986, Acoustic Guitar Duets showcases the skill and effervescence that the two guitarists produced together on tour after they met while working with the legendary French swing violinist Stephane Grappelli.
They went on to form two-thirds of the international touring group The Great Guitars in the 1990s after Barney Kessel, one of Stewart's main inspirations, suggested that Stewart replace him when he became ill.
Acoustic Guitar Duets is released on Friday 8th November.
