Florian, Pedro Bacan was kind of his own man. I don't know a lot about him, but there's a disc he played on for José de la Tomasa which is pretty solid. Alurican is now out of print but I can get it for you. It would be difficult to compare him to someone else, he was unique. I think he was from Sevilla or Utrera. He had very strong opinions about flamenco. In fact, there's a rumor that he refused to play for dancers, but I can't remember the reason. Someone else here may know of this.... Do you have Rafael Riqueni's second recording, called simply "Flamenco"? It was never released on cd, but a couple people made mp3s of it, I did and that one has some good playing on it. Do you have Adam del Monte? Juan Carmona? Carmona is pretty solid. How about Pascual Gallo? Another French player. He has a nice Colombiana with some cool vocal harmony on it. It's an ok cd. Paco de Lucía wrote a nice personal endorsement for Pascual. Maybe one of the above people will be new to you.... Anthony
