Oh... And it's just one guy playing this :)
His name is Carlos Paredes... He is a LEGEND in my country, and the best guitar player I have ever heard.

Some of the world best guitar players are actually Portuguese, they play a genre called Fado, it's typically Portuguese. If you enjoy Great singers and amazing guitarrists... Give it a shot... It's pretty good. :)

This a more modern fado:

Heyyy. I`m from Bosnia.ANd I love Portuguese music (also Spanish).
I like fado,but sometimes I find it so Sad and Melancholic.But still I think it is unique.
I also find that Joe Xavier is a great musicians. (i hope i write correctly).

I also like Spanish music,sometimes i find it very similar like Portugese.
Best Regards from Bosnia.

I made a thread like this in August last year. Not one response :P

To the dude up here, we have a band who plays fado without being sad, their name is Deolinda, if you are interested.

Well, I'm glad you like it :)
They have two albums, Canção ao Lado and Dois Selos e um Carimbo. I have them both in a digital format, so if you want I could send them to you.
Something like Deolinda... they are not like them but I know a group named A Naifa, they use portuguese guitars mixed with drums.

Do bands from Brazil count? It's still Portuguese.

[iangillan]

It does not matter where it comes from.Good Music is ALWAYS a Good music.I Find that many of traditions musics are good.Now I've met some new bands from Portugal. I believe that that Brasilin music are good but i dont I know of no one famous player. Can you point me to someone who plays Brasilian traditional musics.

For Arctic Monkey.....I will try to find on internet this album"Dois Selos e um Carimbo" If I dont find them i will contact you to putt this on some server (rapidshare, megaupload etc..etc..) and send me a link (I hope that you will not be a problem for you).
And anny want or need something from Balcan or Bosnia,I will be happy if I can help you.

P.S. I hope you can understand me,my English is not too good.

Regards.
