Cuban guitar

All this shut in time brought me an opportunity to get out the guitar again and I bought this guys lessons from Truefire.

I love it, but was curious if some of the rest of you like these Latin American styles

I really like it.

For something a little different...I have no idea what this style is called, but its hard not to like it or appreciate the exuberance of the four brothers dancing in the rain.

<insert requisite Yamandu video here>

</yamandu yes its a real DOM element>

random side note, many Flamenco palos are the result of South American developments that returned to Spain... (and named accordingly, occasionally)

Yes, I'm down with musica cubana, but Rob: I'll wait until we are friends before I unload on "Autotune Colonialism" clearcutting culture worldwide :D (I rather liked Morroccan music before that effect hit...now even some Taureg music has it, the last bastion of the guitar and human(e?) voice

In closing, as I'm partial to (partial) non-sequiturs, Norberto Lobo is quite nice... He's the Ewan Dobson or Leo Kottke of the mundo portufonico lol... no, he's quite unique...
