there's lots of good stuff on that, he was very prolific and pretty consistent. my favourites are the older instrumental pieces from the 50s&60s and there are quite a few compilations of just instrumental tracks. pieces like vidala, huajra/guajira, el kachorro, danza de la luna, pastorale indienne, regreso del pastor, zamba del colalao, canada honda, malambo.

I suppose the greatness I'm identifying here is to do with an ability to distill and transport. chops are for the birds

this is the only one I have, but I like it, exactly in that timeframe you mention ('58) and strikingly formal in style and execution to my ears, I need to spend more time with it. good Sunday morning music.

Guy seems p cool but I'm going to put forward Egberto Gismonti, Celso Machado, and Luiz Bonfa as three not-strictly-classical South American guitarists.
