Hola Paul Tomás Pavón is regarded by many as the greatest singer of all and present day singers sing a lot of his cante. He recorded only with Niño Ricardo and Melchor de Marchena, so you have relatively simple guitar accompaniment, which keeps rhythm: keeping time is of paramount importance, though some elasticity is needed to accompany singers. Listen to Manuel Soto "El Sordera" a great and underrated singer from Jerez as well as Terremoto. Here you will hear the guitar style of Jerez. If you never plan to come to Spain, then learn falsetas which please you. If you want to see flamenco de verdad you will have to visit Andalucía, where you will be expected to accompany cante, every time you open a guitar case. Then, rhythm and a rudimentary knowledge of song forms will be much more useful. Suerte Sean
