There are two consecuitive buleras by Camar, although he goes too far with the endings of 'lolailo'. There is a...
La leyenda del tiempo
La Leyenda del Tiempo is one of the best pure Flamenco crossovers where Camarn opens one more different path for creating and enjyoing this genre. In this album only some elements of rock are intertwined with the more consistent Flamenco in Buleras, soleares, etc. In his day, Camarn said 'The closest I have ever recorded to rock has been 'La leyenda del tiempo,' in it i took a chance and put...
Vivir
'Vivir' is the prelude bulera and has a structure almost identical to the one of 'Gitanos andaluces' by the Sextet, instead on this ocassion Jos sings and Tomatito is on the second guitar. 'Campanas del alba' is based on the cante for seguiriyas, which Camarn gives a superb interpretation to and is very well arranged by Joan Albert Amargs, who reminds us of Manuel de Falla - which is not a...
Un ramito de locura
The selection of titles is an exquisite one which Carme Linares materializes with grace, sincerity and skill. The album consists of 12 cantes of which the classical arrangements and the variety of palos that compose them stand out. Carmen Linares with Garardo Nez's trio. Harmony is really what brings the album together once again. But Un ramito de locura also implies that inquisitiveness that...

Agua de mayo
Her uncultivated style has matured with time and is shown in her new release 'Agua de mayo.' Produced in Crdoba by Queco, a person whom Susi only talks of in caring or thankful words.

La Susi's voice has a peculiar veil that seems to stroke in each note and is exciting no...
