Heavy metal influenced Flamenco played on just two acoustic guitars. Incredible musicianship and really unique (for me at least)


Rodrigo y Gabriella by Rodrigo y Gabriella

I'm getting into that Los Straightjackets album as well Bobby 8)


Excellent choice! Those two rip.

The Meters by The Meters

Does it count if the person signing is singing a cello piece or similar?

Hush by Yo-Yo Ma and Bobby McFerrin

But no, it is not common for me.

Thanks man! I'm glad this thread reminded me of this album. I've never come across metal played on acoustics before or since this album.

In the heart of the moon by Ali Farke Toure and Toumani Diabati

This is maybe the most peaceful and soothing album I've ever heard. I should listen to it more often.

Non-vocal classical music I love enough to have on CD:

I own Mozart's Complete Symphonies conducted by Charles Mackerras... really like it

I also own Stravinski's Rite of Spring, the Firebird, and Petrouchka conducted by Vladimir Ashkenazy on an Ultimate Stravinski Package... really like those too

Also I like Chopin's piano music. I own a package of most of it, which is played by Artur Rubinstein, a great pianist.

Yeah, It was hard because he said non-vocal, so I just thought of whatever stuff I could think of that I spent a bunch of money on 😄

I could easily come up with 200 jazz albums (but of course not easily type!). My 1950s chart has 93 instrumental jazz albums.

Some non-jazz ones (at least on technicalities):


Look-Ka Py Py by The Meters


Hot Rats by Frank Zappa


Music Of India (Three Classical Ragas) by Ravi Shankar


Blow By Blow by Jeff Beck


Fare Forward Voyagers (Soldier's Choice) by John Fahey


Gotta Groove by Bar-Kays
Their second album is great Meters-like instrumental groove



Unorthodox Behaviour by Brand X


New Tones by NOMO
Contemporary Afrobeat with subtle electronic touches
