I love Valdes, I have his albums. He is one of the best neo-classical players around these days for sure.

I just discovered David Valdes a few weeks ago. I was impressed by all those videos he has on the net and became an instant fan. I like his style and his tone. He makes it look easy.

For anyone interested in checking him out, some of his CDs are available for free on his website.

You have good taste guys. He's a great player. I can hear passages in his material that remind me of Jason Becker which is always a good thing.

Thanx for the info xuelong I'm off downloading! :D

I just found out about him yesterday, i love his playing style it is easy to tell that Jason was a huge influence on him. I don't think his albums are free anymore so i'm stuck listening to youtube.

Any neo-classical metal fan should check out his "Paradise Lost" song, from the album with the same name, it will not disappoint.

Nice one Frankcastle, welcome to the site!!!
