Very well said JBASHORUN. I enjoy the music they put out much more than hearing someone play say a Paco or Sabicas piece. I admire the creativity and respecy their musicianship very much. To any who lessens what they are doing as well as what Otmar- To them I say let me hear you write (Create like a musician) a melody rather than merely play(Like a trained monkey) a piece by another musician. I believe that when Sabicas told PDL that he should play his own pieces rather than Nino Ricardos, he was saying " Man let me hear some of your music I've heard that stuff before. I admire those on this forum like Ricardo, Florian and Edgar a great deal, because of their CREATIVITY and the great love for MUSIC that is shown thru their compositions. I never felt like they were out to impress as I do with others. To all the critics out there I challenge you to create something along the lines of Rodreigo & Gabriela, if you think its so inferior- it must be easy as well, so go on. I am not a huge fan of Otmar's music, but I do have alot of respect for him as a musician, and I did hear him play a Bulerias once and yes he can play. Simply put JasonM and JDiaz people are enjoying Rodrigo & Gabriela's music, and those same people have no clue that either one of you exist, maybe its time they did, so why not save their audience from and i quote JasonM "That hurt my ears" from that much pain and play them your music.
