 "Manitas" has just been scribbled into my little policeman's notebook :)

- Thanks Greg -

I though Luis Maravilla was brilliant (and he is!), but this chap must surely be the Muhammad Ali of Flamenco guitar.

This is the kind of CD that gets me up in the morning for a day's bin diggin'!

All the elements are here that make for a truly thrilling find for me, and has me almost dancing and yelping like a schoolboy with an ice cream when I come across something like this...

It's an early German press of a "Living Presence" (one of my hot buttons along with certain Catalogue prefixes for classical: ASD, SAX, SXL etc., and RCA's: "Living Stereo"), it has an acoustic guitar on it's cover - I don't know why, I am just supernaturally drawn to images of them of covers - And it has impossibly intricate and accomplished music by a certified genius of his/ her particular instrument.

- It's like having all your balls lined up in the lottery (or otherwise :) -

And this absolutely delivers the kind of mind bending brilliance that I hoped it would... there's like a dozen different melodic elements from different strings of one single guitar all going on at the same time - How the hell does he do it?!! - and it all rolls with liquid precision from the delicate and subtle passages to the eruptions of impassioned chord whacks, and chops, and other assorted punctuation and exclamations.

This is not Flamenco for the Spanish tourist industry, but raised to be the equal of any classical works and soloists therein you might name... it's art.

And this "Living Presence" German press brings it all out beautifully (I hope I find some more of these CDs, they really live up to the billing), with weight, detail, and yes... presence.

So if it's a top notch piece of ten fingered fury, and mesmerising guitar sorcery of the flamenco variety you are after... this must be your first stop.

...I think the title is the review itself:

Flamenco!
