Unusual Guitar Movie Recommendation:

Recommended Posts

Two nights ago, Leilani and I rented a movie called Fados

 

 

No plot, just 18 or so Fado and Fado inspired group from Portugal and it's former colonies and dancers.

 

The singing is passionate, and there is a lot of excellent guitar work, including the Portuguese Guitar which I didn't know about until I saw the movie.

 

Highly recommended.

Here are 3 clips, unfortunately, I couldn't find the all guitar "video" on youtube.

 

the first one has great vocals and eventually great guitar work

This one is unusual as it mixes traditional Fado with what is similar to Cape Verde Island music and the only one with a saxophone

This one with a number of different singers and some nice guitar work

 

There were only two "videos" that I didn't really enjoy the music on, but it wasn't offensive either, just a bit boring to my ears. I'm planning to get the soundtrack CD.
