ricecrackerphoto -> top ten albums (May 16 2006 19:37:36)

so i'm trying to broaden the current selection of flamenco albums that i own/listen to and am looking for reccomendations from the forum.

which are your top ten albums? these can either be CDs you're obsessively listening to now or desert island must-haves.

i have several of PdL, sabicas, paco pena, carlos montoya, moraito, vicente amigo and yes even a juan martin.

and is there a great resource for out of print or hard to find flamenco albums?

thanks!

duende -> RE: top ten albums (May 16 2006 22:03:44)

I´ll give it a try. The list changes of course from time to time, but anyway.

1. PDL sirocco
2. Gerardo nuñez and Carmen Linares. (un ramito de locura)
3 Tomatito .Guitarra Gitana or Rosas del Amore
4 Camaron Arte y Majestad.
5.Camaron Live in Paris
6 Almoraima PDL
7 Solo quiero caminar PDL
8 De corazon el aire (is it the name?) by Vicente.
9 Luzia PDL
10. Paseo de los castaños Tomatito

This is not in any specila order.

And i have already changed my mind
[:D]

Oooh, this is exciting! [:)]

Not in any order

PDL - Sirocco (milestone, can't leave it out)
Vicente Amigo - De Mi Corazon Al Aire (rarely hear so many catchy tunes on one album)
Sabicas - Flamenco Puro (great example of his virtuosity and genius)
PDL - Fuente y Caudal (some great older "muy flamenco" compositions of his)
Manolo Sanlucar - Recital Flamenco (some great older "muy flamenco" compositions of his)
Gerardo Nunez - Andando el Tiempo (damn, I'm always speechless on this one)
Jerónimo (a young virtuoso genius and great composer)
José Jiménez - Algo que Decir (beautiful compositions, great guitarist)
Michio - Zambúllete (more poetic in his compositions with noticable classical influence, great music and playing)
Tomatito - Barrio Negro (heavy flamenco guitar - love it)

I did my best - a 10 best of is just too short.....

I know of web sites similar to Amazon which specialize in selling flamenco albums and deliver by mail. All German though, close as we are to Spain and in the EU. There must be English site like this. Maybe someone from England could help?



Conrad -> RE: top ten albums (May 16 2006 22:57:50)

Here's a list of stuff which gets a lot of entrance in to mine ears lately that hasn't been mentioned...

Camaron's "Potro de Rabia y Miel" with Paco and Tomatito
La Tana's "Enamorare" with Diego de Morao
Jose Merce's "Del Amenecer" with Vicente Amigo
Remedios Amaya's "Me Voy Contigo"
Potito's "Mia Pa Los Restos" with Tomatito
Potito's "El Eltimo Cantaor" with Tomatito, Manuel Parrila etc...
Duquende's latest
Potito's latest
Ramon Jimenez' album
Guadiana's "Brillo de Luna" and "Cuando el Rio Suena" with lots of incredible young cats
Jesus de Rosario's album
La Macanita's "La luna de Tomasa"

There's too much, but make sure to buy all of Paco's albums. They're worth it.
