Really??? Most guys complain about their wives gaining weight but this would probably bug me more then extra pounds...........

La Leyenda Del Tiempo - Him and Camaron, that's my vote.

Tomatito's stuff can be too much on the progressive side for me, amaaaaaaaazing player though.

Like usual i think i favor his debut album mentioned by Ricardo. That also includes his wonderful Solea por Bulerias.

RE: Tomatito cd's (in reply to pink)

"Aguadulce" was the first flamenco CD I ever bought and so has some personal significance. That said, I hear things in that CD that I (still) don't hear in his earlier CDs, and so think it's a little underrated. I particularly like the Solea por Bulerias and all three of the Bulerias on that one. (If those are your preferred palos, then perhaps that's a good way to choose).

"Rosas del Amor" was my second album of his, and that's a great album, as well.

Out of the 4 albums that I have I like Aguadulce and Rosas del Amor very much.
Barrio Negro and Paso de los Castanos a little less. He's my favorite player at the moment.

He's grooving greatly on Mujerez and Al Compas de los Zambos.

I think Tomatito is on Sacromonte by Morente along with Isidro Muñoz. Great too.

RE: Tomatito cd's (in reply to pink)

Many thanks for the suggestions so far...think the first port of call should be his first album. If I don't spend too much at the outset I should have enough money left to buy my wife a razor too. Excellent!!
Your time and help is most appreciated

I would recommend Rosas del Amor, Barrio Negro.

This is my favorite song along with "A mi tio el niño Miguel" from Barrio Negro:

La voz del tiempo (Tangos), "the voice of time"

A mi tio el niño Miguel (Bulerías) excellent *****

Being honest.. download Spotify and use it to listen to the albums and then buy what you like from the shops =)

My wife and grandkids disappear upstairs when I start to practise, can't think why. I love that Tomatito vid withe the tarp providing the palmas, excellent. I can't find enough flamenco, everything new and yet nothing is new if you know what I mean
