What a song, what an album! Funny, I was reading The Bacchae at the time for a class, right when I started listening to that song, and it really seems to very well capture "Dionysian Flamenco", if there's such a thing, you know? It has a kind of delirious craze, wild and joyful, to it that seems very Dionysian to me. And yeah, flamenco is a life-affirming art, and a life-changing one, too. It helps one get in touch with their emotions in a very unique way. I can be sitting these days and get into another world, almost like a trance, just with a basic bulerias or tangos compas running through me - so imagine what it's like when I'm actually listening to the music, to Camaron or one of the other greats!
