Flamenco is so many things to so many people, perhaps you can share your thoughts with us on this thread........

Guest -> RE: FLAMENCO IS! (Jun. 18 2007 8:59:33)

duende -> RE: FLAMENCO IS! (Jun. 18 2007 9:06:37)

Florian -> RE: FLAMENCO IS! (Jun. 18 2007 9:07:28)
Flamingo is my life, but is much deeper than that, i love the sombreros and fans, and red shirts and castanets and the sangria. And its great because its very exotic and people always sound impressed when i tell them i play flamingo guitar.[:)] And i dont like the screaming but i like the dancers and the wodden box ( all my friends say they could do that).

I envy you Flo. I'm with Henrik. It can be a real pain. Sometimes it all seems so aimless. I feel like a soldier who's learning to fight and shoot, but there's never a real war going on. [&o]

Florian -> RE: FLAMENCO IS! (Jun. 18 2007 9:37:03)
this was all just last year, i think i played along like a nice member with all of them but no more i am boring myself repeating the same thing: What is the essence of flamenco What is your deep and personal interest in flamenco Flamenco Puro no disrespect to you Gato

Flamenco for me, expresses the tragical and dramatical excistence of men, with all it's joy and sadness. I see it as an expression of how humans experience there life. This what real music should do and that's why most of us live flamenco and not just hear it. But indeed the music is very difficult en hard to listen to for a long time. But man what a joy if you, for some reason, had to miss your flamenco recordings and than hear them again.....[:D] Flamenco is also a very powerfull something and lots of aficionado's around the world have to experience it alone, that's very frustrating imo. (I'm from belgium by the way )

Ron.M -> RE: FLAMENCO IS! (Jun. 18 2007 22:21:16)
Just..Humanity I suppose... I find that when it gets too fancy, it loses that feeling and morphs into something else. My opinion only! cheers, Ron

ToddK -> RE: FLAMENCO IS! (Jun. 18 2007 22:31:28)
I thought it was that spanishy stuff Al Dimeola plays. Or maybe its those bolero hats with the little balls hanging from the brim. No wait, i got it, its polka dot shirts and skirts.[:)]

JBASHORUN -> RE: FLAMENCO IS! (Jun. 18 2007 22:58:25)
i think flaminco is playin your gitar as hard and loud as you can, then shoutin ole aftrwards but its not that easie you got to know 2 or 3 cords and if u dont cross yor legs the rite way ppl will larf at u and if u play 4 cantay the singa will shout and scream so loud that noone will here u and i dont undrstand y the dancin womin stamp they feet so much like they havin a fit but yes flaminco is like that i think thats wot i like about it anyways

Florian -> RE: FLAMENCO IS! (Jun. 18 2007 23:05:27)
flamenco is like one of those things like space or something :-) like " Where is the end " and what is stopping it ? and what is behind whats stoping it ? [:D][:D]

Ron.M -> RE: FLAMENCO IS! (Jun. 18 2007 23:12:23)
I heard this on shortwave radio about 35 years ago... www.btinternet.com/~flamenco/TerremotoMorao.wma And my chin just dropped! I'd never heard anything like it before... (I thought it was maybe Arabic or something) This was the first Flamenco I'd ever heard. Since then, I've never lost THAT sound in my head. Morao is a tremendous guitarist IMO. It encouraged me to buy a nylon string guitar and try to search for THAT sound! But it kept moving...with Paco...Tomatito etc. Great Artists, but THAT sound is the one that means most to me... Terremoto and Morao... Ah! ...my final Desert Island Disc..[:D] cheers, Ron

Ricardo -> RE: FLAMENCO IS! (Jun. 19 2007 4:08:24)
Electric bass, flute, cajon and djembe, keyboard strings, and harmonica. Puro.

musicmaker -> RE: FLAMENCO IS! (Jun. 19 2007 4:59:16)
It is also a free feeling like one gets riding along on a motorcycle and on a lonely road able to see hear and smell life all around!

Again no direspect, and i dont wanna speak for anyone other than myself but man we have covered that subject to death, only too recently. I think we need about 6 months still just to recover from the arguments and hurt feelings and name callings [:D] dont let the polite conversation foul you, this place is pretty wild.[:D] just hang around for the next Juan Martin thread and cancel your daily activities, its great, its like a car accident, you dont wanna see it but you cant look away [:D][:D]

JBASHORUN -> RE: FLAMENCO IS! (Jun. 19 2007 12:36:23)
Yeah, instead of what "Flamenco IS", this thread has turned out to be what "Flamenco ISNT". Jb

andresito -> RE: FLAMENCO IS! (Jun. 19 2007 12:39:04)
Did someone already say it's leaving your homeland forever, having only your (extended) family to rely on, living in squalor and being persecuted under a fsacist regime, being treated as a subhuman outsider and finding solace in folk music? Sorry if they did, don't mean to flog a dead horse [:D]

Florian -> RE: FLAMENCO IS! (Jun. 19 2007 12:45:24)
quote: Yeah, instead of what "Flamenco IS", this thread has turned out to be what "Flamenco ISNT". well mibe we just made out argument eazyer, mibe we should writte down all the things it isnt first and whatever is left MUST BE flamenco [:D] I know it will be alot faster than trying to agree on what Flamenco IS [:D]

Arash -> RE: FLAMENCO IS! (Jun. 19 2007 14:41:15)
Flamenco is solo guitar only + Cajon + Palmas.....(No Cante) Dancing is also acceptable! hahahahah.....lets fight[8D]

quote: ¡Si esto no está en compas, esto no es el Flamenco! Yeah, Bash, don't you just hate it when people play Granaínas or Tarantas or some other 'toque libre', and call it flamenco? So annoying![&:]

Guest -> RE: FLAMENCO IS! (Jun. 20 2007 3:15:46)
