flamenco passion (2008-07-29)

i have just recieved this cd and it is wonderful. for the price it is a bargain not to be missed. it is full of life and passion and everything you would expect of true flamenco music. it doesnt matter if this is your first introduction to flamenco or you are a seasoned fan, you will enjoy this album.

"Old School" but a joy to listen to (2008-05-17)

Combining many of flamenco maestro Paco Pena's DECCA LPs to form this greatest hits CD, one can hear clearly hear the style of playing so prominent in the 50s-70s. All the styles represented on the CD are a joy to listen to, especially the less commonly heared ones of today such as Rondena, Milonga and Tiento; and the three Buleria are stunning. As an introduction to "proper" flamenco not the poor quality of Costa Del Sol tablao playing or "flamenco-inspired" guitar playing; Paco's Fabulous Flamenco touches all the buttons and does its job superbly. Highly recommended for all newbies.

Flamenco of a rare quality (2008-01-21)

Once, as a teenager, I owned an lp with the first ten tracks of this cd. A guitar novice myself I knew this was the music I desperately wanted to play. Unashamedly festive, these songs, with lots of handclapping, are of a rare quality.It is quite unusual to find one of flamenco's great masters play pretty folksy tunes like these. Still, ultimately I love this down to earth approach to flamenco more than the more subtle one, like Paco Pena in his later works.Twenty years on, I can still listen to these tracks every day. Needless to say, I never ever became anything of a virtuoso guitar player myself, not even mastering a decent sevillanas, as performed brilliantly in the second track of this cd.

Atmosphere, melody, drama, mood........... (2006-12-17)

Fabulous Flamenco indeed, great value for money and fully worthy of 5 stars.I brought this CD trying to find my own 'Duende' after reading a book of the same title. Forget package holiday restaurants and show bars - Uncle Paco is the real deal. You can almost smell the Paella, taste the Rioja and feel the drama and tension of the moods being displayed. It's somewhat tonally erotic in part with many a Blanco being put through its paces to the beat of the dancer's heart. ( ...and you just know that the dancer in question is a dark haired gypsy girl wearing a red dress, and she's smiling at you - you'll know what I mean when you listen to this.... ) The agility, speed and sheer brilliance of the playing is imposible to describe and difficult to comprehend. Once you've heard this you'll want to go and see it live. Make sure you do. Hear it, taste it, feel it ! Comfortably recommended.

the best flamenco cd you can buy (2006-05-23)

I'm someone who plays flamenco and this is a superb collection of flamenco music.Flamenco is poetry and even the names of the various flamenco styles featured here:solea,bulereas,millonga,sevillanas -to name a few - sound poetic.The inlay card gives the history of each piece that is played and a summary of Paco Penas career.You get your money's worth.Probably the best flamenco cd on the market in terms of broad appeal to lots of different kinds of people - there are more profound recordings by artists such as Juan Martin and John Williams but they are not as light,breezy and full of joy.
