What palo? 
Alboreá? Bulerías por Soleá? Neither one nor the other?

Pretty sure alboreas, I could be wrong. Sounds like the alboreas I have on an old record.

One more vote for alboreas, though without some of the traditional letras you usually hear.

Good call. That's what it says on the CD box.

Gypsy wedding song....like villancios outside of Christmas time I was informed that it's "bad luck" outside of the actual gypsy wedding to perform this song. But payos are payos of course.

Is that Agujetas-Moraito example I posted labelled wrong? It's the only example that doesn't have a sort of bulerias or jaleos feel.

Sounds like solea to me.

My first instinct too, but it sounds unusual for him in that that there is very little signature Moraito quirkyness in it.

Yep its an Alboreás.....

All about the wedding ,,it sounds like ..

Se juntaron para festejar
Festejan la boda
el novio y la novia
el novio y la novia
suenan las campanas
repicando a gloria
repicando a gloria


etc ......

Nice piece of music and great playing ....fiesta ... get the wine and cheese out

Alboeas is a bit of Bulerias and Solea ...so everyones is right here....


ooops just read Ricardos post ...I never really heard it was bad luck ,, more just common sense ...like singing jingle bells on the beach in July ....
why do it ?

That's a fair point. My understanding is it comes from solea, but, so does bulerias. I think after you cross a certain threshold of speed playing solea the same way sounds funny so you start playing it like bulerias......that's my guess anyway.
