Paco de Lucia and Vicente Amigo in C...

Hello Foro Flamenco,

Did Paco de Lucia and Vicente Amigo performed together? Is there a video out there on the Internet where they playing at concert together?

If they never did, does anyone here know why they didn't performed together?

Regards,

Jordan Marcio

“In 1991 Vicente performed with Paco de Lucia at the international guitar festival ‘Leyendas de la Guitarra’ in Seville”, it say here:

Whether that means they played duets, or merely that they appeared on the same bill, isn’t clarified.

But there are so few relevant hits on the ’Net, I surmise that absence of evidence is, in this case, indeed evidence of absence.

On the album called Vivencias Imaginadas, they performed a duet buleria. Most likely a lot was laid down and then Paco was probably brought in to play along to the recording. I doubt they played it live in the studio together, but it is possible. Outside of this performance I am not aware of any live or TV spots. Not unlike his duets with Manolo Sanlucar, if it did exist as per spanish TV, it would have been playback miming to the record. I vaguely remember seeing tracks from Vicente's album done that way and it was Vicente alone. PDL appeared with other guitarists numerous times on album but not live, including Moraito, Tomatito, Enrique de Melchor etc. Live (video or in concert stage) I have only seen Paco with Ramon, Canizares, Niño josele, his nephews, and the trio of course.

There’s a YouTube video when he practices live with Antonio Rey before a concert.

I don’t know if they played in the show afterwards though.

Enrique de Melchor toured with Paco as second guitarist, i guess late '60's or early '70's.
(ref. here: https://www.deflamenco.com/revista/entrevistas/interview-with-enrique-de-melchor-guitarra-flamenca-raiz-flamenca-1.html)

Viejín's biog. says he toured with Paco, "In the 90’s he developed a close friendship with Paco de Lucía, and in 1998 the two guitarists did a series of tours in Spain and South America."
(ref. here: http://www.flamencolive.com/html/viejin_biog_i.htm)

Dani de Moron also toured with Paco on "Cositas Buenas Tour"

Sorry I should have said "captured live" meaning either on TV or a filmed concert. I know he played with them but nothing to watch or listen to has turned up other than studio work. Forgot to add his appearances numerous times with his friend Carlos Rebato and also once with Santana, and Steve Morse joined a trio tour.
