I tripped over the intro; maybe the rest is great. But the intro is not how it is supposed to be/feel; the compas(?) is weird, even apart from the actual differences in what is played (vs. original). Maybe just me.
I recently found this chick (ahem, woman - La Caro) looking for "how to play Casilda" - her playing is excellent, but imho has a less agressive and more of a classical feel - right down to facial expressions lol
Casilda is one of my favorite Paco pieces - here's La Caro playing it.
Here's another outstanding video you can use to learn this piece by José Carlos Gómez:
I think this particular Tanguillos is more melodic and easier on the ear than many other flamenco pieces.
Do you have a favorite Tanguillos ? (don't mean to hijack the thread - maybe I should move this to a new thread ?)
Ah well, there was a fantastic passion there, in my case anyway. I discovered flamenco very early on. It grips you in a way that you can't get away - Paco Pena

Yeah, I think she was probably a bit nervous, or just adjusting to a new guitar. I enjoyed the rest of it and it seems like she has a lot of talent and potential for being in her early 20s.
Is there a tab for this somewhere? All I could find is a book Fuente y Caudal - Paco de Lucía - Score book that seems to be out of print. I found some Atrafana videos that work on a few sections that is helpful. After watching this I am inspired to try this.
Thanks

Affedis has it, not listed in the catalogue though. Or the "official" book transcribed by Cañizares:

Thanks Mark

I have ordered them all from flamenco live store in mark indigo’s link. Cositas Buenas took a while to receive (over a month) because of covid slowing things down.

Funny - for some reason I thought you would transcribe by ear Ricardo. Or do you use these as a shortcut?
I have no time or much desire to learn note for note material ...for a long time now. I like the complete score as an over view to the complete album to follow along with. Often things I never noticed jump out at me as interesting. When I want to actually learn a falseta I will get some good video. My library has lots of music that I often dig out when a student is interested in specific things. I always have to “fix” just about every transcription in the end so I am not so picky about accuracy of the score.

But I'll still try to take the credit.
