Great nephew of Diego del Gastor and member of the Sons of Frontera. Paco plays his take on the famous Diego bulerias. I like the sound of his guitar and relaxed manner he plays.

I quite like Son de la Frontera. Their use of palmas and zapateo is very nice and comes across percussively very well on CD as well.


BTW: it's Son, which means "lament". I think it's a Cuban word, there's even a music/dance form from Cuba called Son, which IIRC got it's name because it came from the Afro-Cuban slaves.
One of their members seems to either be from Cuba or lived there for a time. You'll notice there are two guitars and one has a very different tone, it's a Cuban tres (imagine a 12-string guitar, where they remove half the strings, so it's three groups of two strings). At first I hated it, but now I rather like it.


This video is rather nice because I've only seen Amparo play without the band in a movie I downloaded about flamenco from Moron de la Frontera. I quite often wanted to hear him play without that tres accompanying.

Thanks for the link.
