In my opinion, talk of who will be the "Next Paco" is faintly ridiculous and borderline absurd. There will not be a "Next Paco," anymore than a young Paco was the "Next Sabicas," or a young Sabicas the "Next Nino Ricardo," etc., ad infinitum. There no doubt eventually will emerge someone of prodigious talent who will be considered the dominant flamenco guitarist of his era, but he will do so based on his own playing style and technique. His playing style and technique will have developed from a base of those, including Paco, who have gone before him, but he will be judged and considered on the merits of his own playing style and technique, not how he compares with Paco or anyone else.
