interesting. I figured she had some flamenco background. Musically and historically interesting from good aficionados. Her toque is obviously more classical guitar than flamenco but that is ok, she is not trying to sell herself as authentic. Her book is probably very interesting.

I liked that they were having fun, just a good positive vibe.
I speak slightly more Spanish than your average gringo but not much but still it was worth watching.
Wonder if there is an English language version of her book.
And ya, vary classical toque, bet after a couple tequilas she shreds though ;)
