Paul,
I saw on another forum that you were interested in hearing something by Parilla de Jerez. Check out the following link: http://personal.telefonica.terra.es/web/vivirelflamenco/inicio.html
Click on the picture of Miguel Pastor de los Santos and download the audio file. This was recorded live in Japan last year and Parilla de Jerez is the guitarist.

Not to jump in here, but Eduardo Rebollar gave me the nickname of El PErilla de Phoenix. Perilla means "goatee," one of which I have. I didn't really understand the reference, but everyone else thought it was funny.

Miguel:

The "parilla" reference here is a "grill" Like in grilling meat...hehehe

Some people in america call their face a "grill" like in the grill of a car's front end.

Man that word is hard to pin down!

Regards,
Paul

And PHIL: Thanks for the link... Yes, I really like Manuel Molina "Parilla de Jerez"

Paul,
I found out that the clip you heard with Miguel Pastor (El Gitano de Bronce) and Parilla de Jerez is available on a CD that was recorded in Japan last year. I spoke to Miguel Pastor (he lives in Rota), and he said it’s available for sale on the Internet. I couldn’t find it and Miguel doesn’t know the exact title. It has Miguel Pastor, his cousins, Diego and Paco Agujetas, and a Japanese Flamenco singer (!) named Chiaki, all accompanied by Parilla de Jerez. This CD originally had a limited distribution only in Japan. A few months ago they released some for distribution in the rest of the world and each one with hand painted cover by Chiaki, who is also an artist. Anyway, to make a long story short, I can’t find it on the Internet, but Chiaki is supposed to come to Spain next week and is bringing several copies to give to Miguel to sell personally. If you (or anyone else) are interested, I’ll see if I can get you a copy. As you probably know, the Agujetas clan is one of the standard bearers of traditional cante Gitano and Parilla de Jerez is one of the most respected guitarists in Jerez (at least when he’s not doing one of his endless rolling rasgeados.[;)] Parilla doesn’t record much now a days so it’s nice to have an opportunity to hear him.

Let me know if you’re interested.
Phil

Phil:

I am MOST interested. I am only familiar with Manuel and Antonio Agujetas, although I have heard that any of the Agujetas clan is worth listening to. Hehehe... I laughed at your line about one of Manuel Molina's rolling rasgueados! Ilove that sound! It's not the smoothest thing in the world, but when he plays it, especially in a siguiriyas, I get that "wow" feeling! I digress!

Let me know what I can do... I'll send you the money for a copy (make that 2 copies)

Regards,
Paul

Paul,
Here's a short run down of the Agujetas family. El Viejo Agujetas (Manuel de los Santos), who died in 1976, was the father of Manuel, Diego, Luis, Paco, and Juan (El Gordo) and at least 1 daughter who is a singer and, I believe, is living in California. There may be others that I'm not aware of. Manuel, of course, is the best known, but his brothers Luis and Diego have also recorded. In fact, there's a Puro y Jondo video with Diego. I've only heard Paco and El Gordo (who recently died) sing one time and only one song each, so I haven't heard enough to form an opinion. Diego and Luis are very good, and their first cousin, Miguel 'El Gitano de Bronce' is also very good. They all have that raw, primitive, Agujetas style of singing. Antonio and Dolores Agujetas are Manuel's children, and they continue the tradition. I like Dolores' singing more than I like Antonio's. There's something kind of primatively sensual about the way she sings, [;)] but Antonio's voice annoys me after a while. I don't know if you are familiar with the Rubichis. There's a singer, Diego Rubichi, and a very good guitarist, Domingo Rubichi, amongst others. The Rubichis are cousins of the Agujetas. El Viejo Agujetas and 'Mingo Rubichi were brothers. They are also cousins of El Chaqueton de Cadiz. As you can see, there are definite Flamenco dynasties around and almost eveybody is somebody elses cousin. [:D] I'm kind of interested in the Agujetas' family since El Viejo lived half his life and died in Rota and his sons and nephew still live in and around this area. (I live in Rota). I don't want you to think that I'm some kind of a Flamenco genealogist.[:D]

Anyway, that's a hell of a lot more info than you asked for, but I'm in a talkative mood tonight. [:D] I hope this guy Chiaki shows up with the CDs next week. I'll definitely get you a copy if he does. Do you really want 2? I'll try to get them if you want them.
Phi
