ACOUSTIC GUITAR DUETS showcases the supreme talents of Louis Stewart and Martin Taylor in an intimate acoustic guitar studio session recorded in 1985 in Dublin.
The guitarists formed a duo after meeting while playing with Stephane Grappelli.
This album captures them performing some of their live repertoire of jazz standards, bebop classics and some non-standard folk/traditional tunes.
Now remastered and extended with thorough sleeve notes and new photographs in a 16 page booklet
