"I Entered and I don't want to leave"
This review is for the DTS version of this album. I never heard of Esteban before until I started to look around at DTS audio music. Since only a few artists/record companies are taking some risks and investing in producing these type of albums, the selection is few. After I heard a few samples from here on Amazon, I decided to try this one out and believe me, this one is a definite keeper. The music is just mezmerizing. I thought it would make great background music but with this one, you stop, drop, and roll at the amazing sounds that will be coming from your speakers. Sound separation is great and spaced out just right. The concert videos that are on the DTS DVD sound good but look a little cheesy (they are also in 5.1 DTS). If you have a home theater setup with DTS ability, get this one.

"Decent If You Want Flamenco Guitar music on DVD Audio But..."
This is good if you want to hear Flamenco Guitar music on DVD Audio. It also comes with two tracks performed live which are nice. The mixing splits the instruments between the 5.1 channels well, although the bass is somewhat low and sometimes the trumpets have a shrill sound.
But as Flamenco Guitar music goes, I don't see what the fuss is all about. I bought this based on the reviews below, but I don't see this as any better than Ottmar Liebert or even Oscar Lopez in terms of sheer technical virtuosity. And some of the arrangements are pretty cliched and mundane. Ottmar Liebert is more inventive. I feel cheated in that respect.

If you want to hear some guitar playing that is technically brilliant and emotionally powerful, listen to John Williams, "Classic Williams: Romance of the Guitar." Its mostly classical guitar, and its better than this.

"Musically delicious"
The recording, the artists, and the music selection and arangements were wonderful. The recording is of the type that Accoutic Alchamey and Jesse Cook are, but this goes beyond. My personal music collection/taste does not consist of very many accoustic guitar artist, but this recording will touch anyone, especially anyone who enjoys well played contemporary jazz

"Warning! Before You Buy THIS CD!"
Please note that this page does not say anything about needing a special CD player to play this CD. It requires the use of a DTS decoder which is not on most common CD players. Not even my DVD player can play it! Now I can't return it because the CD has been opened. What a waste of money.

"Theraputic!"
Relaxing! Calming! Nostalgic! Experience this as one of life's musts. It is a gift to your soul. Great way to show a friend you love them. It works!!
