Hi henrym3483, That's fine, but a little complicated like Anders, John and others have been saying. I'd add that it's a little more like guajiras than bulería, too. For bulería, mark a very fast soleá while tapping your foot on the even-numbered beats: 12-2-4, 6-8-10. I imagine there's already been lots said on this forum about whether bulerías start on 12 or on 1, but I think the difference between bulerías and guajiras is the 1-2-3 count taken from soleá (whether or not it's obvious at a given moment), and guajiras (and that OTHER cante [:D]) start on 12. Hope that makes sense. I'm laid up at home with the flu, and I've just listened to a bunch of Pepe Marchena. What with the high fever and all, it gets a bit surreal. Sounds like the music my girlfriend's Yorkshire terriers would listen to.[:D]
