Diego del Morao Interview and....

I found this video on the blog of Josele Ortiz

http://joseleortizguitarra.blogspot.com/search?q=diego+del+morao

It is not so good quality (recorded in front of TV

)....but some interview and parts from Concert.
As i am a big fan of Diego del Morao and as i know that some of you also like him, though maybe sharing this.

Sweetness, I love this guy. Wish I understood all of what he was saying. I can see he is being asked similar questions as in the flamenco-world interview. Thanks, Arash. I don't know Josele Ortiz but he seems well connected and his guitar is signed by Diego, haha. One of Diego's guitars is signed by PdL. Antonio Rey's is also, and Jesus de Rosario has one signed by Paco AND Tomatito, I think. Pretty funny. Here's a nice one of Diego with Potito:

(a Solea is there, too).

And here's a promo video for Antonio Rey that I found:

...He plays that great Raphael Rabello tune at the beginning. Sound is not so good, unfortunately.

cheers

This is the first I heard of him, but I can already tell I'm going to be a big fan too. Does he have a CD out that anyone can recommend?

RE: Diego del Morao Interview and.... (in reply to Francisco)

unfortunately he doesn't although he said in an interview about two years ago that rather sooner than later he'll need to create his own album...
he's there on plenty other albums as contributor, mostly cante and 2nd guitar on some...

check out Potito's Barrio Alto album, the 5th song called A mi compadre Pepe, somehow that's become a favorite of mine, he (del Morao) also performs it with José Mercé...

Nice vid from Antonio, Conrad! I didnt like his pieces with trumpet and so, too jazzy for me. But his taranta is simply genius i think. I never heard anybody play something like that.

He looks different in all 3 videos doesnt he? (certamen, youtube and this promo vid). Dont know just grabbed my attention. When i saw his pic on the CD cover i didnt even recognized him.

Well, I have to confess I didn't know Diego or who his father is. I can see now why I like this guy already, his dad is one of my favorite guitarists.
