RE: Bracelets (in reply to Richard Jernigan)

quote:
Sabicas didn't need a bracelet. He had that big diamond ring on his left hand. He liked to flash the reflection at the good looking girls in the front row. Exactly. Not to wax philosophical, but the statement that flamenco guitarists "always wear a bracelet on their right hand" seemed a bit too categorical. Sabicas, Paco Cepero, Paco Pena, and others apparently saw no need to. I think the original poster was referring to a younger set of players: tomatito, Vicente Amigo, a more elderly Paco de Lucia, et al. in any case, I think we can assume that wearing a bracelet has nothing to do with the playing of those who do choose to wear one.
