North Texas Guitars

Acoustic Guitar - Music by Charles Flowers

My visit to Spain in 2009 was a profound and unexpected experience. Traveling around Spain I felt a sense of the history, the passion for life, for the food and the music! I felt a passion released in me; a passion  I have had for many years for acoustic guitar music, but had never really pursued.  With the encouragement from my wonderful wife, Mary, I have embarked on a new journey of discovery !  If anyone asks where I am , I will be traveling the  El Camino a Ávila. (The Road to Avila)

The guitar I am playing most in these recordings is one  I  had in 1968 from the Guitar and Banjo Studio. At this time Alton Tew , Jim Laboue and myself  were just getting the Guitar and Banjo Studio in Beaumont, Texas off the ground.  I guess that makes this instrument more than 40 years old!   Wow! I have been playing this guitar for 40 years!

I have been writing and performing music for over 40 years but had never really recorded any of my music.  Mary has encouraged me to copyright and record my music and I have uploaded a few pieces to the main page of the site  for your listening pleasure. 

My current works  are, Una Noche Mas (One Night More) inspired by a night time walk with my wife along the Mediterranean shore in Valencia, Spain.  El Camino a 'Avila (The Road to Avila) was inspired by our trip to Avila and Segovia, Spain. And Song for Caylena is a song to my stepdaughter.
