He looks more like a fusion (  ) of Manolo and Vicente. But what a talented guy! Sure, as some people commented, his playing could be much improved if he moved to Spain for a while, but it's very impressive what he's accomplished on his own.
And a refreshing approach to learning:
"I never had music teachers (except violin teacher from whom I had 4 lessons), my system of self teaching is not very original. If you like flamenco or other ethnic music and you want to play it, so try to play it, why not? You don't have notes? Listen and play, why do you need it?:) There are you and there is a sound. Notes are certain mediator between you and sound, not very good, if it is a popular music like flamenco... Just listen and play! You can not play by ear? Listen the first note and repeat. Done? Then the second note, etc. You can play all the composition in this way. You have mistakes? But who doesn't have mistakes? Just play, later your experience will remove your mistakes. During the process of self-education you obtain your personal musical logic, but you need to like the music and to listen and to analyze a lot. Use all that you hear and see. That's all =)" - Eugen Sedko

That's the point!
The man has a great feeling towards the piece. I like it very much.
BTW - close your eyes and listen to his Punta del Faro rendition, there is very much Paco inside!

actually looks like a hybrid between PdL and Manolo. Great technique and his hands look similar to PdL ...too weird..
