No need to refer to pre 1900, the fandango era begins and ends squarely within modern times, while many forms of the fandango family go much further back and are even mentioned in written accounts. And then there's Padre Soler's "fandango" from the 1700's. That makes no sense, unless you meant "fandangos naturales", which is fine. To not go on and on about it, I will just stick with this statement and leave it at that: quote:
The first fandangos are believed to have been abandolao forms derived from Moorish music, Only point I was making all along, first there was compas, then there was free style. The free style fandangos evolved from the song form that had a beat at first. quote:
If you read the original Spanish letter, no one called Manuel Martín an "idiot". yeah I know I was just poking some fun. The real words were "racist/faciast" I believe. Since you seem to be defending him I will REALLY leave this one alone, or this could get ugly quite quick![&:] quote:
we don't have many threads about cante and I wish we did. Great, as long as we talk about what we LIKE and not who we think "does not know how to sing flamenco...".[8|] Any singer knows that Estrella can SING or whoever else gets bad critic. Whether or not you like it is something else. Critics of singing should just sing then, and show everyone how it is done. Same for guitar and dance.[;)][8|] That being said, some aficionados sing BETTER than some pros at certain styles. I think it is good that a singer focus on something rather than sing everything just to show knowleadge. But that is just my opinion as a fan. quote:
This is a guitar forum. If there are half a dozen people here who understand cante sufficiently to understand what Martin Martin is saying, it would surprise me. Not goin there...[8|]
