Album Review
Jungle Guitars boasts a title that sounds like it belongs on an old exotica album of the '50s, and indeed, the album revives the old Martin Denny trick of including bird song and other rainforest field recordings in the tunes. Aside from that, however, Jungle Guitars is a fairly standard Strunz & Farah album, with the two guitarists working together to create intricate webs of new age-influenced easy listening instrumental pop. There's a bit of Peruvian influence here and there, as on the mandolin-decorated "Selva" and the handful of songs goosed along by Latin hand percussion, and the tempos are a bit faster than on those Strunz & Farah releases that are aiming for a more relaxing feel. Other than that, this isn't much at all different than the duo's usual standard.
Customer Reviews
Complex and Beautiful
I have been a Struntz & Farah fan for a long time. Their complex guitar playing is among the best guitar playing I have ever had the honor to hear. I didn't not give this album a 5 because I believe this work not to be their best. If you were to buy an album from Struntz & Farah, I would suggest Primal Magic. That album is priceless. However, if you already own Primal Magic then this would be the perfect addition to your Struntz & Farah guitar playing collection. I just with I could play as well as they do. Absolutely wonderful and seamless.
Captivatingly Sultry.
Pure ear candy.
Simply Splendid
As a guitarist, this album rates right up there with The Guitar Trio of De Lucia, Di Meola and McLaughlin. It's a no brainer for anyone who digs Trio, world music and some heavy chops. dg
