RE: Tomatito, Nino de Pura and Manol... (in reply to Dudnote)
its like a flamenco "Meeting of the Spirits" ...but you have to wear a a shirt and tie.... . and have you hair long at the back ...mullet ...which really doesn't suit Manolo... anyway and plays one of his favorite falsetas from the learning Cd ... ... I do really like Niño de pura ...great style ....
RE: Tomatito, Nino de Pura and Manol... (in reply to jg7238)
its sure is el kiko - really cool tomatito plays regular falsetas from before -- they look like pretty chilled -- tomataio is looking cool also -- they look like an80's rock band ala warrent !
RE: Tomatito, Nino de Pura and Manol... (in reply to jg7238)
Great video !!! I have never seen all three together. Manolo Franco and Niño de Pura have been doing duet work for some time now. It would be fair to say that they are probably the best flamenco guitar duo alive today. When I was first in Spain I heard a live concert on the radio of those guys and I wish that I could have recorded it. I saw them both together in concert some years later and they were brilliant. Niño de Pura has extremely fast picado...I seem to remember him being described as a "flamenco malmsteen" at one time. Tomatito is still the coolest though
