I watched the first of yours, Nc, and the one supplied by SAS.
Why oh why do Americans always equate faster with better? I gots me $20 that says that the percapita sales of Satriani records was highest in the US. I'd likely win that bet.
But on a more serious note, I did very much like the Tommy Emmanuel track, and I did appreciate the other. But Pierre Bensusan is of a different style and the playing seems far more complex and difficult to this pundit..
I agree, though it's not just Americans. As it happens, I just today finished a music video featuring a friend who's an electric guitar virtuoso. You'll notice he plays amazingly fast bursts of notes only occasionally, and tastefully (I think):
Phil Cramer performs "Cliffs of Dover"
Ethan Winer

Good one Ken.
My absolute favorite is Sean McGowan. Here's a poorly made video of a live, electric performance:
Sean McGowan plays Stolen Moments
Dave
For acoustic, anyone else like Norman Blake?
My dream team (sigh, no longer possible) was Chester, Lester, and Norman...
The "Neck and Neck" CD that Chet Atkins and Mark Knopfler did a few years back is kind of nice; I just LOVE their version of Django Reinhardt's "Tears".
The Bear Family Chet Atkins collection has a lot of gems too, including some duets Chet did with Hank Snow in the 1950s, and all of the excellent tracks from the 1954 "A Session with Chet Atkins" (I still have my mono LP of that one that I bought in 1960).
I like Norman Blake too...as long as he doesn't try to sing...lol.
I think the CDs that Delos issued of Celedonio Romero (the papa of all those Romero boys) are my favorite classical guitar tracks; I think he is better than even Segovia.
Another fabulous guitarist: Kenny Ball, of the duo "Ball & Sultan", based in Santa Barbara for many years; the best blues guitarist I have ever heard.
trVth, there, indeed.
Tommy Emmanuel is Australian, Ken.
I love Vicente Amigo too.

as a pedal steel player, I love Speedy West and Buddy Emmonds
