Suena Montoya y vive el flamenco.Detras de cada nota espero la voz de Chacon,Vallejo o Marchena.
Y sigue los arpegios de Don Ramon.
En Gloria esté.

@jbell94521 CARLOS LOVED ACCOMPIANMENT AND HE WAS A GREAT ACCOMPIANIST BUT STOPPED IT EARLY ON BUT HIS WIFE KEPT PUSHING HIM AS THE GREATEST GUITARRIST. OFTEN WHEN HE WENT BACK TO SPAIN HE' LEAVE HIS ENTOURAGE AND FIND A SMALL CANTINA AND PLAY ALL NIGHT BEHIND SINGERS AND DANCERS

@TheTocaor IN FLAMENCO TOQUE WEVE LOST MORE TODAY THAN WE'VE GAINED EXCEPT FOR EARLY PACO AND A FEW LIKE MORATIO JUAN HABICHUELA AND CEPERO ETC. JAZZ HAS SUFFERED TOO

@TheTocaor Dear Tocador, For me the playing of Ramon's says much more than the frenetic jazzy playing of the newer players who always seem to be restlessly searching for brilliance and greatness. With Ramon you sense that he wasn't struggling against nature, In spite of the fact his playing is exciting, it is so natural like the trees and the sky... I just relax and get lost. I'm reminded of a Victorian art critic who said... 'The old masters found great meaning in the ordinary.'

Brilliant! My favorite Flamenco guitarist.
wonderful, exciting to feel the roots of true flamenco in his playing! Question: in this piece he doesn't seem to use the capo, and the guitar seems to be tuned a half-tone lower ?!? Or is it the recording which is too slow, that means in reality he was playing even faster? or both...? Thanks for your answers!

@arajanja I´m sorry. I can't give an answer to your questios.
I love flamenco guitar, but I am not a guitar player, so I can't talk of tuning or speed.
Maybe, someone else would give you an answer.

In a sense the playing of Don Ramon Montoya will never be equaled. His flamenco is so elegant, so beautiful and so simple. I wonder sometimes if he says more with fewer notes than the guitarists of today with their blinding picado and jazz fusions.

I agree completely with you about the "toque" of Ramón Montoya

Todos los guitarristas se han mirado en Ramón Montoya.
También subí sus famosísimas rondeñas.
