I listed to the program twice, I subscribe to this podcast in iTunes. BTW the show on Juan Habichuela got the highest ratings. Amos Lora plays well, that's for sure, but at times I ask 'Where's the beef?' Alegrias is always up for grabs to make it pretty because that gets you work from dancers who want a symphonic super duper major key exploration of chords, but I like Chano Lobato better. But when you do the same thing to Siguiriya and make it florid and pretty...hmmmm no. Just no. Siguiriya should never be rigged so it fits on a smooth jazz canned FM radio format. Just no. I put in the Old Fart Trigger Warning to move past the candy and into the Moya and Gaspar de Utrera- I don't want any complaining from either camp. Lora is not that rhythmically interesting compared to the older innovating players, but I'll listen again for sure. His Solea was interesting. He should just go into an abandoned parking garage with a four track and a six pack get loaded and play like hell. Then release that. Otherwise.........ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ I fall asleep as a result of digital perfection boredom. Putting the Guiri in Si'guiri'ya
