Do Classical Guitarists class as "fingerstyle"???

If so Andreas Segovia and his prodige, Johnny Williams, deserve a mention!!!

Strictly speaking Figjam, No, however the guitarists you speak of are superb exponace of the classical guitar, Segovia bieng the man who brought the classical giutar back into vogue because of his sheer artistry. Iwas hoping to keep this as another thread but iwill add a few in this genre,
Leo Brouwer
John Millls
Carlos Barbosa A-lima
Andrew York
Stein-erik Olsen
Juilan Bream
Vincent lindsey clark
Liona Boyd
etc etc etc ...................................
