RE: David Leiva transcriptions (in reply to DavRom)

I bought his "treatise to accompaniment for solea" at one point. It was good for the vocal/percussion tracks and little else. On the other hand, the bitty booklet it came with did more or less accurately transcribe what he was playing. I guess I really can't offer much constructive assessment of the product that you are asking about, But I would be cautious.

I can say that you can go in and listen to the base line of his first tango example (part 2 on the score) on the page you linked and see already that the transcription is not accurate.

Edit: Well, I see he does actually put part of the bass I hear in Guitar 1... maybe guitar 2 does drone on the C - so my claim of the inaccuracy could be wrong, though I still can't hear it as he has it written.
