Ron, i must say i have never really paid proper attention to Bacan or Paco Cortés, how about a litlle sample of something good from them ? i can do the same with any guitarists u see on my list that you are curious about. I dont think Sabicas is old mans music mate is litlle things that put togheder make into one big thing, eg: the guitar has come a long long way since him ( i realise he has his place in guitar history ) i know the scales he does and exactly what note they gonna finish on before he even does it, on a cd that i have never heard before, i dont know if that means anything to you , but i dont want to know what note someone does before he does it, i like to be surprised and taken places i never been before. Also, the recordings quality, when i listen to a flamenco guitar cd i want the hole experience,(i like the rich harmonic cristal sound guitar cds have today) if the recording is bad it dosent matter how good the music is , il listen once and il turn it off.

Yes Ron it makes sence, mibe you right mibe one day il put the cd on and just be blown away, i gues my knolodge has to grow alot more, i can only speak for how i feel and know atm. I guess we all have our own jurneys to make and discover musicians on our own time , theres no use pretending that i understand or like something when i dont just because I should because he Sabicas. Theres alot of Paco stuff i dont fully understand still, i am simply beeing true to my heart purely, if something dosent touch me personally well then it dosent. Is what flamenco has always been about to me , no about keys, or sound, or tradition or non tradition, or compas or no compas just about how it makes me feel. And knowing how it makes me feel, is probably the only 1 think in the world I am a expert on :-) thanks for the upload i will check it out.

I think you are a young and creative guitarist with a great imagination, but I think a year in Andalucia would do you the best good you've ever done yourself in your life. The things that turns me on in Flamenco is that "tightness" of rhythm, with the melody overlaid on top of it. Without that, it's not really Flamenco "puro" ( ) for me! Sure..I can't do that on the guitar, but I really respect those who can. But without it...it's not Flamenco. At least to me. You've had Simon's offer....get your Australian butt there! As Simon said, it's not a freebee holiday....just an opportunity if you wanna take it up. And if you want to stick around for a few months, you'll have to either bring money or find a job. Can't be worse than where you're at right now? And there are, in Andalucia, muchas pretty Señoritas who could probably tap out a better Bulerias on your ass afterwards! cheers Ron

I've been listening to the CD that comes with Juan Martin's Solos Flamencos Vol 1, and I find it very inspiring. It's not a technical masterpiece, on the contrary the solos are very achievable. I almost didn't buy it after what I read about him on a yahoo group I'm a member of, something about him not being 'puro'. Anyway, goes to show you, it's difficult to debate matters of opinion as it is impossible to account for taste. I'm glad to see Manitas made your list florian, as he was one of the first favorites of mine who has also been designated by some as not 'puro'. A couple more I like, but may not be 'puro': Ottmar Jesse Cook Finally, Manzanita is another personal fave. ciao

flo, don't forget Jose Maria Bandera! I know he doesn't have a solo go, but that's about the saddest truth in flamenco today. He is a crazy good player. Great improv chops too. I think he's better than Canizares. Those two are the only ones on the soil to be able to say "I studied with the deity, Paco, Francisco Sanchez, de Lucia".
