Does anybody have any of the Candy Rat Records cd's?  I was listening to Andy McKee: Art of Motion last night and really like it, but I don't have any of their other artists, though I've listened to a bunch on YouTube.  Any recommendations for full albums?

If you haven't heard Drifting by Andy McKee you need to check out this link:

My budding guitarist son and I saw Antoine Dufour and Craig D'Andrea perform live in WV last year.  Mind blowing precision by dufour and Craig has a more laid back style of play.  We really enjoyed the show.   I bought Existence by dufour and Getting used to isolation by D'Andrea.  Both are great recordings and great music.

check them out on youtube.

I must, cause I get e-mails from them.  I suspect it was the Mattias Ia Eklundh CDs I bought.  Good stuff, very skillfull, very creative, but kind of spastic.  Seems to go with the guitar wizard genre.  I think that can't be helped.  When normal people listen to musicians whose minds and fingers are going at 1000mph it's hard to keep up.  But the guy made a song from the sounds of an inkjet printer, and I was sold.
