moraito style of playing
hey guys.. could u guys recommend me some players that plays in the style of moraito? I love his sense of rhythm and drive.. I tend to place players like Nunez, rafael cortes, Miguel A cortes, PDL, Vicente amigo into one category of style..
But I don't know anyone that playing in the style that Moraito plays.
hope you can recommend me some.. I've heard Diego Del Morao's album and not catching me at all..

I would say you must listen to guitarists who are specialists of accompanying. Look for recordings of Terremoto de Jerez who worked a great deal with Morao.

Quique had a car accident and has taken a long while to recover (I think it happened 8 years ago at least). I heard he is teaching again out at one of Sevilla's pueblos, performing only rarely.

Wow, I didn't realize the other videos in the "I cant stop watching this video thread" are from the same movie. I showed the movie's website (www.beingintheworldmovie.com) to my friend who's a Heidegger nut and he loved it, too I think it'll be fascinating, it's not often you see a movie featuring no holds barred flamenco, and it's not often you see one discussing Heideggerian philosophy either. This should be both! Props to them for that.

You're not wrong, Bruce!
No (overt) philosophy in this one, but worth hearing, very nice feeling - Diego Amaya accompanying Fernando Terremoto (fandangos, then bulerías):
