Tomatito's son. This recording shows him to be a lyrical and sensitive player.

Very nice playing. Definitely leaning into the Vicente & Dani de Moron styles.



Ricardo -> RE: Jose del Tomate (Oct. 17 2016 19:20:13)

I honestly think this is just tomatito playing.

You could well be right. I began to have an interest in Jose del Tomate when I saw this clip on Utube.



I was struck by the relationship of the father and son. So I followed the sons clips on the tube to see how he would develop.
There is nothing i saw that hinted at anything like this quality of performance.

To me it sounds like Vicente Amigo rather than even Tomatito
Well, nothing is beyond the pale in flamenco.

Then you haven't heard a lot of Tomatitos work.
His style is very different to V. Amigos.



aeolus -> RE: Jose del Tomate (Oct. 17 2016 22:21:30)

Maybe not. I am more familiar with Amigo than with Tomatito. To me it sounds like Amigo. There is a delicacy of touch and expressiveness that seems to point to Amigo.

Checking further, the link is pasted on Jose's Facebook page and listed as an unreleased recording.

Also on his page is this clip, OT but worth a look. Apparently a cousin.

I was simply pointing out the sons' playing is indistinguishable from his dad's. This is pretty normal in this genre, Diego del Morao for all his originality sounded exactly as his Dad when he first appeared on the scene. I will admit I agree that in the Taranta example at top, he certainly is sneaking in some Vicente signature moves, in the same way Antonio Rey and some others have also been doing.



Echi -> RE: Jose del Tomate (Oct. 19 2016 12:06:45)

I agree with Ricardo.
In the last years the very same Tomatito incorporated something of the style Vicente plays with and something from the music of Camilo.
The sound of the Reyes makes him way smoother and jazzy than he was years ago



Cervantes -> RE: Jose del Tomate (Oct. 19 2016 21:20:47)

That is one lucky kid and dad must be proud of him.
He can definitely play.
I stumbled onto this one:




DavRom -> RE: Jose del Tomate (Oct. 19 2016 22:39:41)

beautiful playing and music in that first video!

thx for posting



AlVãl -> RE: Jose del Tomate (Oct. 20 2016 2:31:19)

From a Tomatito interview ...
El Entri and his Dad were his guiding light
Man ... What a life
Thanks for the post - great playing indeed
