Flo, you just did not misspelled David's name four times? I agree on what you say about rhythm, but the Paco, Vicente, Tomatito are also accompayning all the time in their shows. I feel the rhythm thing is a special Cano Roto thing. Nonetheless i have seen Tomatito just yesterday, and i must say, i prefer others as soloist. He may be not even in my top10 of soloists, but as accompanist he was incredible. Ok i dont know how, lets say Antonio Rey, would have played, i guess it would have been as good as anything.

yeah thats what i am saying...that rithm is part of the feature for this guys sometimes i see vicente in concert or dvd and his rithm is fine, perfect compas and feel...but hes just doing it to get to the next falseta ( i think hes a genius melody composer...but honestly i think i am a litlle tired of his sound, 4 or 5 albums later sounds exactly the same, if i hear one more delayed note and one more overextended hammer on or slide .....)...i like a guy that can sound like a machinegun for one compas and brake into the most beautiful falseta the next..with attack, purpose and drive..i really value unpredictability and with this guys u have absoluteley no idea what to expect...i dont just wanna like the melody i wanna be suprised too and for me thats what this guys do...David, Jesus ..etc they go to both extremes...whers some of the solo guys just save it for the falsetas but thats just my opinion...u know i loved vicentes music for about 10 years...only lately my ear is saying...thats it ..no more.. Absoluteley no disrespect intended to the guys that listen to Vicente...just trying to strike out a conversation about why we like what we like.. To me the perfect album should..Entertain you,Inspire you, Amaze you, Challenge you , Surprise you and take you somewhere you havent been before.....and whatever makes you feel that..I dont care if its Ottmar ..then good...u have every right to have it at the top of your list, and shouldnt have to make excuses or apologise to anyone for it

florian, i have a good advice for you (and for everyone else, who wants money, but who also wants the real thing) you have to live a schizophrenic life. from age of 20 - 40 , play music for the mass, produce many CDs, and make enough money to retire. meanwhile practice at home secretly , paco de lucia, el viejin and all the other difficult things, etc. but don't play such things in the public. that could ruin you. when you are 40, quit playing mainsteam sh.t, you can even say publicly that you hated your own music and all those people who bought your CDs and you just do that to make money lol then join foroflamenco and the exclusive community and enjoy the rest of your life. hmm, ok maybe its too late for you and me....but other young afficionados should think about my suggestion
