    Good for him.

    But on topic I'd suggest trying Rodrigo y Gabriella aswell.

    Can't believe that Paco de Lucia hasn't been mentioned. Check him out first. An absolute master . And of course Rodrigo himself.
    Also you could try Cameron de la Isla for the vocals. :D

    JUAN MARTINE... Without a doubt one of the best spanish guitarist in the world.

    He plays in Ireland occasionally, in the national concert hall. I seen him there once, and it was amazing. Definalty worth listening to, even just to sample.

    Saying you should check out Roddy Gobby for Flamenco is like suggesting you should check out The Sawdoctors for Trad Irish.

    Try this instead: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000005HA9/ref=pd_sxp_f/102-2375261-5145761?v=glance&s=music
    You'll note its called 'Masters of Flamenco Guitar', not '2 Peruvian Students can't believe their luck'
