NOTICE I said supposedly-because that is not my opinion, but eh opinion of some aficionados. About Cepero, that is interesting, though I have not heard it before, but doesn't surprise me really. I think he is maybe no. 1 for me. He has a lot of great dynamics in the bulerias with Maria Vargas too. Of course that is not PDL, and you can hear his voice giving jaleos and encouragement "ole!, brilla!",etc. I think they got mixed up on that CD is because PDL DOES play two excellent solo pieces, and maybe joins in some rumbas and dance accomp., but I doubt it. Cepero is doing all the accomp, but they were on tour and hanging out a lot. If you notice, Cepero plays a couple of falsetas and little licks that PDL is famous for, so they were probably trading ideas. Perhaps who ever listen to the tapes and mastered the CD heard those licks and thought it was PDL. There is series called "puro y jondo" DVD's, and is fairly recently recorded. Cepero is seen accompanying some folks in that vid, and he plays as good as ever. Nano de Jerez comes to mind, but I dont' own the series, only have seen it with friends. So you can still find him accompanying. About PHD, I think J. Serrano and J. Greco were both awarded honorary PHD's for doing nothing. Ricardo
