This morning was the first sunny one in New England since maybe last August. Flicking the radio on and having this come on just brightened my day, made it fell all the more sunny. Now that I've seen the album cover I'm like put a bag over it. This cover makes a great case for Amazon MP3 downloads. I sure wouldn't want anyone to see this album while perusing my record collection....
 

And we haven't seen a sunny day since. Almost literally.

I agree with you on the album cover too.

Nice guitar playing, with a flamenco accent. (McFlamenco, yes)
dowdog999 got it: what the f*$^? it has to do with brazilian samba? "Carnaval"?
Oh my, give me a break.
Only in this guy's disturbed muzakmind...

The music is great, but I have to say to the cover:
Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaa!!!!!

Yea the guy is better looking than me, has better head of hair, and plays guitar better than me. The old lady probably wishes I looked like him but I'd alot rather play the guitar like that. He really can play

LOL! Based on the cover, I'd say there's an 80% chance of Pantene, with a chance of Alberto VO5.

Music's not that bad, though.

I saw Benise playing on the street in Palm Springs a few years ago, hawking one of his CDs. He is amazing and absolutely gorgeous.

Love the Spanish guitar with Brazilian landscape (Portuguese-descended country). Portugal is NOT Spain people!

I'm enjoying this!!
Posted 16 years ago by Boston_Ed    [ Reply ]
Great piece I like it, but not much samba in it. It sounds much more Spanish than Brazilian.

Nice. Reminiscent of Jesse Cook.

I had to give this an 8. I was browsing the cigar pages, and had to stop to comment. There is something about Spanish Guitar style playing that puts me in such a good mood.

Wow lot of haters here.. I personally like this simply because I admire people that can play an instrument like this. Plus it definitely has a fun side.

Flamenco in a can. McFlamenco. Highbrow crap. The Kenny G of guitfiddle.
Don't hate me because I am guapo ;-) Not bad Flamenco, typical (thought it was Ottmar as well), but well done. Any other Flamenco you'd recommend Monkeysdad or just a general flame of the genre? I know some Flamenco, but there are plenty who think Nickelback is the best band ever because they don't know better...

An untrained ear on this style of musicso whatever but- I like it a lot.

Clue in. It's not meant to be flamenco. It's meant to be fun. It's possible that you would know that if you could tell the difference between your nut and machine head. Peace.

McFlamenco is an EXCELLENT term. I shall use it OVER and OVER

Funny how two people can have such opposite opinions. I tend to agree that it is the work of talented musicians going through the motions. I don't know if I would go as far as soulless but certainly not soulful.

While Carnaval exists in many countries, Samba is from Brazil, and this music has nothing to do with Samba, much less double Samba. Lame song name, tacky album cover and title, generic Spanish riffs. Other than that, it's okay.

As one who has played the classical guitar, I give this two big opposable thumbs up!
