It was called I Can Count to 12. Then I realised you'd only get that if you already got it. And no one would find me. If they'd have wanted to. So I've renamed it. Inspired by the Pacos who inspired me. It's still my flamenco journey. And it's still a slow journey.
OK it's not, it's a TV film. But this is how it might have been. Possibly. Or probably not. But it's interesting. A little anyway.
Passed on by my Basque compadre Kakau.
It's not about me, it's about flamenco and specifically flamenco guitar. I've played guitar for years, singing songs, having a laugh. Then I decided to learn to play it properly. I have a day job and other things I obsess about so it's not like I can dedicate my life to it. But I love it. And that's what this is about.
There's very little out there in the blogsphere about flamenco guitar. Which is wrong. My hope is to build a resource - in the loosest sense - for anyone who is into flamenco guitar. The tags give it some structure. For example, some of them fall under 'flamenco guitar lesson' and so they are the ones that cover theory or technique. But it's not just about learning. It's about inspiration, about the reality of learning, the experience and reflections of learning. At the very least it's helping me understand my flamenco. It might even help a few people. It might even inspire non-flamenco guitarists to try it. Go on...you know you should.
