quote:
Juan Martin has done a great deal to help others to learn flamenco. That is not true of everyone who plays flamenco guitar. Thats true Thomas you are right most people i know didnt start flamenco cause of Juan Martin tho, most peaople started cause, Gipsy Kings (funny as it might sound) Paco Pena, Paco, Otmar even etc. But Juan is the guy who's book most people i know started learning flamenco with. With that beeing said, no matter what he has done for Flamenco when he puts a solo cd out all that is out the window, he just gets judged on the cd. If its a brilliant cd by all means great, it its bad whatever, my point is the fact that hes a nice person and made the most comprehensive beginner Flamenco guitar book shouldnt mean that we have to like his music. U can respect him, but personally musically and technically i wouldnt even use him in the same sentence with Paco. or the next 50 - 70 guitarists down the list after Paco. Vicente AMigo, Tomatito, NIno de Pura, Jeronimo, Juan Carlos ROmero, Paco Jarana, Pedro Serra, Diego del Morao, Nino Josele, Manolo Sanlucar, Gerardo Nunez,El Viejin, Rafel Riqueny, Moraito, Oscar herrero,Grisha, Paco pena, Rmon, jimenez, Serranito,Quique Paredes ,Pepe Habichuela,Paco Serrano,Juan Manuel Canizares, Juan Carmona BORBOREO, second tought i think it would be quicker to name the lesser players.
