Thanks for posting a Carmen song! This was a magical album to make, we had a lot of fun. If you like Carmen, please check out my new band - Widsecreen.
@davidclarkallen I saw Carmen as the supporting band for Jethro Tull around '74 after Bowie's Midnight Special show. Stil have all the LPs, Dancing on a Cold Wind, Fandagoes in Space, and The Gypsies. Thanks for the great music.
Muchisimas gracias 3boywonder! I really appreciate hearing from people who 'got' Carmen. My new band Widescreen is working hard on our second album and as soon as they're ready, I'll post a few tunes.
Alphi O'Leary lent me a copy of this back in '74, and not one of my mates ever 'got it'... but Fandangos in Space is an excellent album and I searched long and hard for a Cd reissue of it.
I also saw them perform on the Midnight special with David Bowie. I've loved them since. I think the style of their music is fantastic. Fandangos in Space is my favorite album of all time.
Very cool to see this here - you can see and hear some of Roberto Amaral's latest work on his myspace - Roberto was the flamenco dancer and became lead singer and songwriter for Carmen.
I bought the "Dancing on a cold wind" lp in the 70's and played it till it wore out. I still have it. I found it again on CD while on vacation in london in 94. I was so happy, I would have been happy to jet back home to the states to hear it rather than finish my vacation. Found 'Fandangoes" online in 97.Love em!
Envidienme. Yo tuve la fortuna de ver a este grupazo en el Sport Arena de San Diego, Cal., en 1975, como teloneros de Jetrho Tull. Es una lástima que no existan videos de Carmen; por suerte por ahí andan rolando 2 CD's alemanes o ingleses. Si vives en México, DF, lo puedes conseguir en el tianguis del Chopo...
Wow!!! I can't believe it!!! Alot of people I've mentioned Carmen to never heard of them. What a loss for them!!! I was fortunate enough to see them live in '74, at the Trenton War Memorial in NJ. What a show and what a place to see any concert!!! The flamenco dancing with the spotlights on their feet was awesome! I can go to sleep a happy girl tonight and will renew my search for this gem pronto!!!
Thanks for the video! One of the greatest and most original band of the 70's. Fandangos in space is one of my most treasured LP's and is played LOUD on a regular basis :D
I never sold mine. In 1987 some speed freak stole all my vinyl. I would love to have that collection back....it's very hard to find some of the older, better music from that time anywhere.............
Wow, holly crap!!!!! There is actually someone else besides me on earth who remembers Carmen, Fandangos in space (Bulerias was a great song too!) as well as the other album looking like a "Gitane" pack of smokes...I had to import the CD from Holland...Thanks, great!!
I have Bulerias live.... circa 1974 - couple versions but I don't think I can upload the Midnight Special one... let see if I can figure out how to upload it (2 parts)
Wow! I agree with you. I didn't think anyone else even knew who they were. I have the feeling I'm gonna have to do what you did to get a copy. I listened to my Fandangos album till it popped and crackled. What a find here on YouTube, eh? ;o)
