  Beautiful Sound Quality, Beautiful Price, Beautiful Music February 13, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I totally agree with the other reviewers and won't say more on the music contained on this CD - it is simply the most beautiful PURE solo guitar flamenco I have ever heard!
I just wanted to comment and say that the sound quality on this CD is simply unbelievable. I am picky when it comes to sound, and own a 5,000+ pair of speakers. Whenever I want to show off my speakers capability to somebody, I put on this CD. The hand clapping, the guitar, and the clicking of the castanets are so incredibly rich in detail and vibrant in color that they often startle people who think there somebody is playing music in the room.
It doesn't matter if you are new to flamenco, or a long-time fan - get this gem of a CD jam-packed with 80 minutes of ingenious flamenco guitar.
  At last! Pena's work is avaliable October 25, 2006 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
When I first got into Flamenco guitar I was told Paco Pena was among the best and most underappreciated. He's a professor of Flamencology in Holland I think. At the time I heard about him you couldn't get much of his stuff on CD at all... so its great to hear this master doing what he does best, Traditional Flamenco
  Perfect for the connoiseur or newcomer to flamenco July 12, 2005 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
This beautiful CD makes for a wonderful introduction to the world of flamenco music. If you are already a fan, this will make a terrific addition to your collection, showcasing traditional flamenco at its best. The guitar work is exquisite--Paco Pena is truly a master of the instrument. Nearly every song is a winner, IMHO. Although easily worth a much higher price (Flamenco is an underated genre in the US), this 100-minute CD (a re-release comprising of 2 vinyl LPs) is a great value, ringing in at considerably less than the average pop CD.
  Profound Gems Are Around For Our Pleasure September 1, 2004 12 out of 13 found this review helpful
The complexity and beauty of the guitar is brilliantly displayed here by Paco Pena. Todays guitarists of the rock genre need to reflect and listen with great care at the musicianship and personal flair of Paco Pena. Flamenco has always been exquisite yet never so beautiful as this CD release. This is a gem!
I am not a guitarist but if I was I would forever lay my guitar to rest knowing that total masters of the difficult cypress wood instrument Jose Feliciano, Feliciano! Birelli Lagrene, Paco de Lucia and Paco Pena were in recital. This CD set is a remastering of 1975 and 1977 album releases of "Fabulous Flamenco" and "La Gitarra Flamenca".
I am very surprised at the price of this CD set. Under $10.00. Are you kidding me?
A fine release to melt away conversation and urns of wine.
