I was sent that for review when it came out. Torregrosa was obviously a competent musician, but he equally obviously wasn’t a guitarist. A lot of what he wrote is unplayable as written. In particular, he wrote fandangos and bulerías capo'd at 2 in B. I actually put two of these (Aires choqueros and Plazuela) into Finale and transposed them down a tone (I had more surplus energy in those days), to see if they were right. They confirmed the second sentence above. However, they do form a useful starting point, much easier than transcribing from scratch. I’ll send them to you if you like. PM me. And I do seem to remember that Entre dos aguas, transcribed in the right key, was almost entirely correct.
