Phil Manzanera is one of the UK’s best-known musicians and record producers. Since beginning his career in the early 1970’s as the lead guitarist with the seminal band, Roxy Music. Since then he has been recognized as one of the world’s leading guitarists and is in an increased demand as both a performer and a producer.

“Ritmo De Los Angeles”, from the album “ Primitive Guitars” is the newest release by Phil Manzanera. In spite of being a solely instrumental song, what the piece lacks for in lyrics it makes up for with incredible electric guitar melodies, which are ultimately pulled together by a strong, syncopated bass guitar.

The single, inspired by classic acts such as Led Zeppelin, will not only will have its listeners grooving, but with it’s Latin American undertones, it’s definitely a timeless track that’s been written from the heart.
