RE: New Vicente album is out (in reply to machopicasso)

I'm listening to the solea now and I imagine James Bond climbing a mountain, killing the bad guy, and rescuing the girl. Another great record from VA!

ORIGINAL: machopicasso

So he composed the Soleá and dedicated to his percussionist (cepillos’s cousin from Sanlucar), and titled it the same as my Soleá about the same exact plaza. It is a cool piece in the end.

I think that's one of his best songs of the last several albums. Is there a better example of a Soleá with (near) orchestral accompaniment by anyone?

It's also an interesting example of a potentially commercially viable Soleá. It sounds well-suited for a movie soundtrack.
