Does anybody know of any good vids of this? Is it really rare? I remember almost a year ago someone posted a cool black and white video of a guy(political comedian I think) playing and singing on tv while standing up. I can't remember who that guy was. Anybody know? I think he was wearinga fez.

RE: Does anybody accompany thier own... (in reply to Gummy) 
You will see it often for the fun party numbers, Rumba, sevillanas, tangos, bulerias, perhaps even alegrias. But for the serious stuff, it is hard for a singer to accompany himself/herself. Something will always lose out, either a good accompanyment or the singing. In rito y geografia, I remember a guy accompanying himself por solea, but I can't remember who. I will check. I bet in the old days, that was the way.
