Amazing.. I'm a big fan of Pepe, and of Juan (senior)'s laid back groovy playing, but this is something else.. he's really got his own thing going on there. I saw 'Juanito' in June, he's a terrific player with loads of musical ideas. Amongst other things I was impressed by the way he accompanied bulerias using a lot of passing chords and with a lot of interesting and inventive things going on, but somehow without being distracting or intrusive. That's to say, he was playing a hell of a lot of notes but it was very musical and somehow didn't sound like "too many notes", which is unusual. quote:
[Pim:] almost electric guitar picado Students of picado may be interested to know that for medium to (very) fast picado, he uses i-m, but for extremely fast picado he uses i-a. quote:
...and even go to the bathroom with the guitar Now that's technique! quote:
[PC:]When I was studying with Mario Escudero I once asked him how long he had practiced each day when he was learning. His answer was "From the time the sun came up until the sun went down." Tomatito was asked in an interview how much he practises, he said usually about 9 hours a day. On days when he has to look after the kids, attend to various domestic duties etc. and doesn't have much time for the guitar he only manages...five hours. @Ricardo: Thanks for the jaleo tip!
