The best North American mail-order store I've found is flamencoconnection.com. Shipping is 5 or 6 bucks, whereas ordering from Spain shipping costs as much as the CD. Check it out.

thanks veet, you rock! I ordered last night and got a personal email from Yolande this morning saying they were sold out but expecting more in a few days. $29 + $5 shipping. Looks like they`re shipping from Falls Church, VA

@ralexander -
You're quite welcome. The CD must be a hit if they're selling out so quickly - I got mine a week ago, it's pretty amazing music. And there are tracks featuring Diego Carrasco, El Cigala, Nina Pastori, Paco de Lucia, and Moraito.

For those wanting the booklet, other than the musicians' credits, there's not a lot there-- A long-winded pompous essay about the greatness of being an artist by Manolo Sanlucar (just shut up and play, already, maestro,) and an introductory commercial blurb from Cigala Music, the new record company that bears Diego el Cigala's imprint, which released this CD. All text in Spanish, seguro.

Is it just me or is Diego Carrasco nowhere to be found in the soleá?

Awesome! Thanks so much for posting that Arash.

Tuning: DADGCD, in D phrygian - I was wondering about that; the video makes it pretty clear.

Glad I'm not the only Diego fanatic out there.

The arpeggio part starting at 2:00 is really great stuff.
I really like how he plays with the silences. He's not afraid by them like some players who needs to plays a bunch of notes just to shut off the silences.
