EDUARDO NIEBLA - BBC4 "World of Jazz" 2008

[peterwrigley]

I saw Eduardo last night at a small venue in N. Devon UK -- this guy is a maestro of the Spanish guitar influenced by modern jazz, Latin, flamenco to name a few. His music is awe inspiring, the speed at which he plays some pieces is amazing, together with the emotion Eduardo shows when he is playing and enjoyment he bought to the audience was plain to see. I spoke to him in the interval and he is a very likeable & personable chap. I urge you to see him if you can you will not be disappointed.

I saw this guy busking in Covent Garden in the early 1980's........... he was brilliant then!

Still have his home made cassette nade with Antoinio Forcione ......... and it plays perfectly too

For 2 summers I was living with him and more flatmates in a house in Dollis Hill in the 1980s. He used to go busking to Covent Garden and Portobello market with Antonio Forcione and I helped them pass the hat round asking for "contributions for the musicians". I've never known someone so enthusiastic about learning and improving;and so caring, modest and honest with everybody.I'll never forget those summers!!Many thanks to Maribel who introduced me to them. I wish you the best!. Maria Hostia
