This has a distinct kenny g vibe about it,especially the change at 0:54. Between 2:03-2:33 we see the vicente amigo we all know and love. With the exception of this and a few killer shreds hes thrown in to keep his old fans happy, other than that its like taking an elevater to the top floor at the crown casino.

I aggree 100%, his first album was so amazing and made such an impression on me when i first heard it. I still remember the day i heard him for the first time. My guitar teacher was playing De Mi Corazon in his car and it was on gitano de lucia. From that moment he was my favourite guitarist, and i wanted to learn everything from that album(which seemed impossible and still does ). I did learn morente,callejon de la luna, most of gitano de lucia, some of tio arango and some maestro sanlucar which is a killer....still have a long way to go Thats why it is so dissapointing to see tracks like this. He is not even giving us 10% of his virtuosity, when he could be giving us everything and unloading grounding breaking albums like De Mi Corazon onto the world. He has much more than this to give imo.

we dont have some kind of ownership over his taste or where he wants to go musically No your right, sony BMG does I know what you are saying about 'his sound' as a fad or craze, it definatly caught on. But the thing is his first album was so ground breaking everyone wanted to sound like him. It wasnt a 'gimmick' as such, it was the real thing...he was the real deal and not a passing fad imo. The reality is when you think of the most famous flamenco guitarists, his name is always high on the list.
