I look at these technique things as little pieces, little building blocks that you can put together as you please, with taste. I don't see a need to learn a complete pattern, but it should not be a problem assuming you can do the little "building blocks". I abandoned the return stroke for A and M long ago, because I did not see any of my favorite players doing it, and it has a certain sound. Of course I understand how to do it, and it is not "wrong" to do it. Application is personal. It is just for me, I like a certain sound, and if I can achieve it doing my "own thing" great, but in general, I have found imitating my favorite players is getting better results as far as the sound I want. In the end it is personal. But you can see how the "psuedo" flamenco guys have done doing their "own thing".[;)] Ricardo
