Ricardo -> RE: "Toda una gira" Paco - documentary (Dec. 10 2014 3:12:12)

Well there is a point to have a nice DVD of concertfootage in HD quality...but we can get that on youtube already. I agree more should simply be available commercially for fans. But I remain hopeful that there is more to be made off of Paco's career and growing fame, and in time new (old concerts) will come out. The cleaned up Rito y Geografia series for example is gold. As for the audio CD I was surprised as well, but I noticed the tracks are the ones used to illustrate points in the film, it is not random selection. Likewise, years ago, I felt it was arbitary to have the "Flamenco" CD that couples with Saura film...ie it's the movie "soundtrack". It is a pretty normal thing to do, I for one don't mind it at all. The best concert footage HD quality available, IMO, is the 2010 concert in Germany where Faru breaks his heel off and Al Dimeola joins him as a guest at the end. That is a great finale to his career IMO, playing is not bad at all especially the buleria solo. While I would love to have it on DVD, nothing stoping me from plugging my ipad into the HD TV and enjoy on the big screen anyway, great sound and picture....the best really, even better than the DVD's I have of older (better performed) concerts anyway. In terms of a discography of bootleg video...that would be something. If organized by date a single poster could compile a list as Mark has done with the extensive recording discography, but....as much work as it is, it seem quite easy these day to just type in the seach and find what you want to see. Almost everything he ever recorded has been caught on film I think, often multiple times. PS, that video of Gitanos Andaluces is funny....playback to the live album but with Jose Maria Bandera pretending to sing like his uncle Pepe! holy mili vanilli!!!! [:D][:D]
