Flemenco Montoya
Carlos Montoya didn't invent flemenco music. It was around for years and years before him, the style was evolved from traditional Spanish music the same way today's American music is evolved from Blues, Jazz and Folk. But Carlos is the father of Flemenco, there is no doubt about that. He took the style and with his guitar ran with it. I love this rare video of Carlos just playing his heart out. Strumming with disregard. Its a thrill watching his fingers just flow all over the neck with such flow and ease.
