There are many recordings of THE most popular guitar concerto ever written. I have heard many readings of Rodrigo's work, (in fact, I already have 2 other versions.) There are more fiery versions, there are versions with a more showy solo part (often with an unnatural balance in favour of the soloist,) but this is simply a (Spanish) master of the instrument in a beautifully played version, with warmth in the famous slow movement, a nice spring in the finale, a fine, attentive accompaniment, and an excellent, well-balanced recording. This is the real sound of Spain. You can't go wrong with this!

Listened to the recent Radio 3 review and was immediately struck by the beauty of the clips from this. Was even more impressed by the whole thing.
