Soulful stuff Simon!

The intro had me longing for a Lamb Biryani.

God knows how famous Sabicas could have been if only he'd recorded with drums, synth and electric bass.
Maybe Bono on vocals as well?
Ah Well..... I suppose what's done is done....

Hi Simon!

I have tried to define ( like in definition, sorry for my english!)
flamenco, and I came to the conclusion, that, if you tick with a stick a soleares rithme
on the floor, it is flamenco.
If a baby should do it with his rattle, he, or she, would not know it, but it is flamenco.

So, as modern or progressed the music will get, if it has the right rithme I would call it flamenco.

Well, you asked for thoughts, here is one of mine....

greetings Peter.
