The two guitarists on the left of this album are Sabas and his brother Diego. Does anyone recognise the third dude?

Isn't that Escudero?



Paul Magnussen -> RE: Question for old-timers (Jan. 26 2012 18:47:19)

No. Not unless someone’s photoshopped his face.



Richard Jernigan -> RE: Question for old-timers (Jan. 26 2012 21:53:39)

Looks like it may be Fernando Sirvent, who was house guitarist at Fidel Zabal's nightclub La Zambra in Manhattan in the late '50s-early '60s.

The Sabicas album is dated 1959. When I was on the east coast in the Army in 1962 Sabicas was a frequent participant in after-hours juergas at La Zambra. Sabicas gave the famous Barbero that he recorded "Flamenco Puro" with to Zabal.

Fernando's sister Amor Sirvent owned a Spanish gift shop near Dupont Circle in Washington, DC and had a flamenco dance studio.

The Sirvents were payos, but were well integrated into the flamenco communities of their respective cities.

Looks like Jose Castellon, don't know anything about him though - may be a reletive
of Sabicas? Check the guitarist out at .59



Richard Jernigan -> RE: Question for old-timers (Jan. 27 2012 4:02:18)

Yeah. I've got to withdraw my vote for Sirvent, and go with Jose Castellon.



Says here: (scan down to the bottom of the page at "martinetes-baile")

that he was Dolores Vargas' husband. Never heard of him before.

Yes, it looks very much like José Castellón. Thanks to both of you.

I see that Dolores’s apellido materno was Batista — I wonder if she was related to Andrés?



Ron.M -> RE: Question for old-timers (Jan. 27 2012 16:12:28)

Wasn't Sabicas' real name Agustín Castellón.
Wonder if there was a relation?

cheers,

Ron
