Thanks. I introduced him a while back in the foro.
He is good. There are also other good guitarists in Iran. In fact there is a good flamenco scene there.

He is obviously a very talented guitarist, but his Tarantas sounds more like a 'love song' than a song having to do with the trials and tribulations of the Gypsy miners in Spain. I am very much a traditionalist, however, so maybe this is 'flamenco nuevo' a la Persia.

He's in a perfect, *perfect* position to bring out the Middle Eastern accents of the flamenco style.
