RE: [Audio] Home recordings of Paco ... (in reply to Filip)

Great find! I feel, based on the first video where he talks a lot to introduce the zapateado, that both his voice and guitar pitch and tone are very high, suggesting the tape is running very fast (ie recorded on a device that was running slow to capture). Not that that takes away anything, but the speed was probably much slower in reality. Both videos are great material and you hear paco make mistakes, stop start like any of us mortals would have to. AT 7 min in the first video you see Paco with an Arcangel or Barbero guitar, very rare shot. IN the second video, there are two bulerias falsetas that I teach in the Paco tutorial series (I think first and second tutorials I made), I would say they grabbed this recording in 71 or 72, as the album Duende comes out that year, and he was still working on this material.

A short interview done in Buenos Aires, could be from the same period as recordings linked above?

No, that is from 1980 or so.

I realised that less than a minute after posting the link, after realising that Paco plays la colombiana so it must be around Solo Quiero Caminar years, and edited my post right away...but wow you were fast to respond :) so reverting my post to the original for consistency. Thanks.
