Morante -> Viaje Andalúz (Dec. 24 2014 21:40:51)

Just been watching this documentary from the BBC: must be one of the best ever made. Sadly many of the artists are now dead, but this is flamenco de verdad. I was inspired to see it because the other day I met Rancapino in the street. We repaired to a bar and he sent someone for a guitar. I accompanied him por fandangos, malagueñas y seguiriyas; the seguiriyas was incredible. When my great friend and great cantaor José Millán died in 2008, I stored my guitar in a wardrobe and have not played flamenco since. To accompany Ranca with a beater guitar after 6 years was emocionante. He thinks the same as me: el cante necesita una guitarra, pero una guitarra sola es una huéfana. Felices fiestas a todos.
