RE: nothing serious, just some thoughts (in reply to Stu)
quote:
Doit, by "covers" do you mean things like impetu, panaderos, mantilla de feria? and by "1:1 copies of other genres" do you mean things like things like czardas de monti, lecuona's pieces and/or or the hispano/latina albums with ramon?
only i'm thinking that apart from those 2 hispano/latina albums with ramonthere aren't really a lot of covers and copies on his early solo albums, 1 on first album, 2 on second, quite a few on 3rd but none on 4th....
maybe you mean he lifted falsetas from older players but put them into his own pieces? would be cool to know which ones, which tracks etc. as i'm not too expert on the older players' stuff but would like to check those things out if that's the case.
Sorry Mark I did not see your questions till now. I think your questions have been answered till now... But I have a question. Did Paco invent the armrest?
