Music Review: Rodrigo y Gabriela's 11:11

The most amazing guitar work I've heard in a long time can be heard on 11:11, Rodrigo y Gabriela's latest disc. Really, this is about as good as it gets, and I can't even adequately describe the terrific stuff produced by this duo from Mexico. It's like nothing ever heard before, a rhythmic instrumental mash up that takes traditional Latin flamenco and crosses it with Carlos Santana and Jimi Hendrix. This is compelling, joyous stuff, so precise and so energetic. Looking for something to make you dance? Here it is. Want a new disc to motivate you while exercising? Look no further. Do you want an album that will discourage you from learning how to play six strings? Well, maybe this is it. Simply put, this is sweet. Truly astonishing.
