José Menese Caracoles

Note how Carmen sings the original letras, while José always tried to find original letras.

I always liked Menese's brilliant voice, and how he sings in tune.

Carrion put away the Conde he played with Menese, and is playing a Robert Ruck with Carmen.

Antonio changed his Conde for a Reyes, but now has changed the Reyes for a Ruck, which he plays all the time.

Robert used to come to Cádiz and always spent time in the taller. He usually had a guitar and his flamenco guitars sound flamenco and are very well made.

didn't he sing letras written by a poet from his hometown? I can't remember his name off hand, but he was featured in the Rito Y Geografia programme devoted to Menese.
