Re: Spanish guitar music

Also, for a slightly more modern take on it, try Rodrigo y Gabriela. They play rock and rock influenced songs in a flamenco style.

Re: Spanish guitar music

Rodrigo Y Gabriela are superb, their self titled album is great. They are Mexican mind you, so not strictly Spanish but....still excellent!

Also for something a bit more chilled try Antonio Forcione.
Gypsy Kings are great, as is Manu Chao (Clandestino among others).
