"I was in San Diego earlier this year when I bought this CD. This was the beginning of my flamenco music fever. The music is wonderful! The fact that it has various artists, gives you an idea of which artists you want to explore next. At the moment, high on my list, is Jesse Cook."

Outstanding Compilation

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is one of the more tasteful and elegant compilations of "new flamenco" music I have heard. It begins on a powerful note with a tour de force performance of "Scorpion" by Young & Rollins, the highlight track of the album, continues with fiery compositions by flamenco legends Tomatito and Chuscales, and features notable music from some staples of the new flamenco genre such as Willie & Lobo, Oscar Lopez and Jesse Cook. All of the performances feature sophisticated guitar artistry that should please aficionados of the instrument, while the abundance of captivating melodies and rhythms should seduce any music lover."
