Fandangos de Huelva; long opening ra... 
I have these three old vinyl LP's from the 1950's : "Anthology of Cante Flamenco", with Perico el del Lunar accompanying various singers. Has some really nice old stuff on it.

He plays a long introductory rasguedo for the Fandangos de Huelva that I've never been able to figure out. It sounds like a number of 'up and down' variations on the E7 chord before dropping to the characteristic finish of Amin; G, F and E progression.

Anybody have any idea what this chord progression/rythmic pattern may be, of if there's a suitable tab available somewhere?

Thats not fandangos de Huelva. Thats Fandangos Naturales. I dont think Chocolate ever did FdH but he was a true expert on Naturales.

Britguy. You have to upload something we can listen to. Traditionally, FdH dont use much Rasgueado intros or falsetas. Fandangos de Alosno (a local variant of FdH) uses rasgueado falsetas and intros. They are played "por medio" in A.

Greetings britguy.... I think I know the one you mean. I've uploaded an mp3 to the 'Audio uploads' section. I've never been able to understand that rasgueo either! All the best,

Changue

Well, its a rasgueado based on the basic chord sequenzes.
Fist the E, am, (G) F E and second the Am G F E. A bit like traditional Jerez Bulerias intro. You can do whatever you like as long as you use standard chords and mark the accents.

I dont think you´ll find tabs.

THAT is the EXACT piece I was referring to Changue!

R. Montoya Jarrito singing Fandangos de Huelva, Perico el del Lunar (Pedro del Valle) playing. You must have the same record. I bought the 3- LP set in 1959 or so, I think. When I was back home in England.

Many thanks, hopefully someone may know how it is played and can let us know if there's a tab somewhere?

Britguy

I dont have the time to sit down and learn it myself, but if you use a slowdowner, I dont think its very complicated. Its different variations of rasgueados over basic chords.
These intros are more or less improvised and as long as you stay within the basic chords and play the accents, its free what you do.
