Paco de Lucia - solo
Dec. 15th, 2008 11:53 amJust a short clip today, with Paco de Lucia playing a little opening bit...
This is pretty much how he opened up the performance at the Berklee Performance Center, and can be heard on his Live in America
disc... although, here it's used to segue into an interview that isn't included in the clip.
Paco's speed is quite noticeable when it's just him and the guitar ~ sometimes, in the ensemble, you're not aware of how blindingly fast he is on account of the performance being musical. This isn't just speed for speed's sake, no matter that there's more notes in this minute long excerpt than in many full-length tune! =)
