Hey guys, Just letting you know I will post some videos here on Friday the 23rd April 2010. I am supposed to play somewhere tomorrow, and I need to get together with the other musician and practice... right now. And there are some things I need to do with women.
On Friday afternoon I will make a bunch of videos and upload them. So much stuff has been requested of me both in public and private, I don't even know where to begin, so you'll just have to wait and see.
FOR THOSE WHO CANNOT WAIT:
Here is a tarantas that I recorded a couple years ago (mostly an improvisation, a few classic falsetas and other things mixed in):

SPECIAL UPDATE: I have created a limited time offer. Tonight, after I have finished doing some things in real life, you can SKYPE VIDEOCHAT with me, and I will play you ANYTHING AT ALL that you want, flamenco or not. Any scale, palo, technique, whatever. This will take place at 21:00 MADRID TIME, figure out what that is in your area. It's about 5 hours from now.
PM me for my skype name.
Videos will still be up on friday of course.

***personal opinion*** 1. Tarantas : one of the worst Tarantas I've ever heard .. there is no Tarantas soul in it at all . everytime I listen to Tarantas it takes me to Almeria in Andalucia but urs just made me turn the volume lower. 2. Solea : good one, so typical thou. 3. good speed but it's a very easy scale , im sure every one on the foro could do it.
Good that you posted some vids. picado right hand looked very good and steady, but maybe work a little bit on your left hand, keep the fingers closer to the fretboard.
