Hey Phil, thanks for the encouraging words!! I agree about the modern players straying too far from the form. I still listen to Sabicas, Nino Ricardo, Serranito alot, i'm still very much obsessed with 50's and 60's flamenco. I want to try to do the newer style alegria, but with the sensability of the old school players. Sabicas is my hero! And, yes, i hear similar comments about the Benevant bass tone. I guess that just comes down to taste. Sometimes im not sure if i do the bass stuff because i like it, or because i think its what people want to hear in the new style. Luckily, its very easy to remix it, and simply mute the bass out.[:@] I use a program called Guitar Pro 3, to tab material out. I can send you a Guitar Pro 3 file, or i can also export the file as Standard Midi File. Can you work with either of those? If not, let me know what i could do to get you the tab. I will eventually complete this alegrias, and when i do, you can have the whole thing in tab. Let me say again, i'm extremely pleased that someone like yourself, who's on the purist side of things, so to speak, enjoys what i'm doing with flamenco forms. That's extremly good for my confidence as a player. It fuels my creativity when i know real deal flamenco lovers enjoy my stuff. Let me know about the tab thing, ok.
