Downing -> 12 best CDs of all-time? (Jan. 4 2005 19:42:32)

This is sort of a spinoff of Kate's post regarding the 12 best flamenco CDs of 2004, which I noted did not spark a lot of interest but I thought I would ask anyway since I'm looking to build my CD collection.

Any and all suggestions would be appreciated.

Think of it as if you were stuck on a desert island. Which CDs would you want to have and why?



Escribano -> RE: 12 best CDs of all-time? (Jan. 4 2005 20:30:48)

Only 3 from me (in no order):

1. Camarón (with Tomatito) - Paris 1987
2. Capullo De Jerez - En Directo
3. Ziryab - PDL



Guest -> RE: 12 best CDs of all-time? (Jan. 4 2005 20:59:57)

1. Tomas Pavon: el Mantentiel del Cante Gitano, El Correo. Recopilacion, 2001?
2. Juan Villar: Juanito de la Gineto, Polydor, 1972
3. Terremoto de Jerez: Chante du Monde, vol 4. Recopilacion.

Then, of course, what about Maria Callas?[;)]

I'm going to follow you up on those, Sean; knowing your tastes, I won't go far wrong[;)]



Miguel de Maria -> RE: 12 best CDs of all-time? (Jan. 4 2005 21:13:51)

Downing,
from the guitar side of things, I would say

1. Manolo Sanlucar -- Tauromagia
2. Vicente Amigo -- El Ciudad de las Ideas
3. Paco de Lucia -- Almoraima

These are basically guitar CDs, although they have cante, bands, and even symphonic stuff. But they are all absolutely killer CDs!



Downing -> RE: 12 best CDs of all-time? (Jan. 4 2005 23:18:17)

Miguel: Yes, I was asking about the guitar side of things. Thanks for clarifying that.

Nothing by Paco Pena? That's kind of surprising.

So far, I've got only one of the above: El Ciudad de las Ideas. I'm surprised PdL's Siroco didn't make anyone's list.

Thanks for the suggestions so far. Now to try to find them at my local music store...



gerundino63 -> RE: 12 best CDs of all-time? (Jan. 4 2005 23:33:33)

Azahara-Paco- Pena
Misa Flamenca- Paco Pena
Sol Y Sombra-Eric Vaarzon Morel

Hope you feel a bit better now, Downing!

1. Vicente Amigo--De Mi Corazon Al Aire
2. Ramon Jimenez--Sembrando Inquietudes (everyone should really check this one out!)
3. Moraito--Morao y Oro

TANúñez -> RE: 12 best CDs of all-time? (Jan. 5 2005 2:11:22)

1. Luzia - PdL
2. Tauromagia - Manolo Sanlucar
3. Rosas del Amor - Tomatito

Then again, if I were to be stuck on a desert island I'd rather have my guitar. Batteries can only last so long. Then what good would these CD's be? [:D]

TANúñez -> RE: 12 best CDs of all-time? (Jan. 5 2005 3:34:18)

True [;)] At which time I'd make a flute from a tree trunk to keep me busy while I make my strings from the leaves of palm trees or the guts of any wild animals that may be around [:D]



Conrad -> RE: 12 best CDs of all-time? (Jan. 5 2005 3:59:50)

Hey! I like seangregory20's choices. Ramon Jimenez is terribly underrated. Whoo, Nice pick!

I'm not gonna bother with a full list of my guitar favourites, because I would just get completely carried away.

However, Siroco is the most essential disc in any collection. Utterly sublime. Chilling.

Here are some of my Cante picks:

-Camaron's "Potro de Rabia y Miel"
-Camaron's Paris with Tomate
-Diego Cigala "Live with Nino Josele" (the buleria is worth the price)
-Potito's "Mia Pa Los Restos" (check this one out!!!!!)
-Duquende ya la Guitarra de Tomatito
-Guadiana's Brillo de Luna (my newest discovery, wicked) / Also check out the Alegria from his other album "Cuando el río suena".
-Jose Merce's "Del Amanecer" with Vicente Amigo
-Duquende's "Samaruco" (crazy new melodies and ideas from Paco de Lucia and Duquende)
-Miguel Poveda's "Zaguan"

Remember to PLAY IT LOUD!

PDL: Fuente y Caudal
Tomatito: Guitarra Gitana
G Nuñez: Cant remember the name, but that one with the absolute killer granaina.

Besides that, Manolo Caracol con Melchor de Marchena, Chocolate con Niño Ricardo El Agujetas con Parilla de Jerez y La Niña de los Peines. These CD's with cante will teach much more flamenco than more or less any guitar heroe CD.

Nice listening



Guest -> RE: 12 best CDs of all-time? (Jan. 5 2005 17:34:42)

5.Vivencias Imaginadas-V. Amigo
