I love the grandeur of this interpretation, fantastic, I can almost "see" the fiery dancer, when I was in Madrid last year I saw a popular Gypsy dancers on the "Plaza Mayor" it was awsome, that people has fire in their veins, incredible.
Back in the late 1950's and early 60's I had a record from the 101 strings. Absolutely beautiful. Nice to hear this beautiful music again. I didn't know I could get it online FREE.
NOTHING is completely free at Google. Google offers many wonderful services, websites, etc. But the ads on this and other sites more than make up for us having these great things. God bless Google!
One of the greatest versions of Maleguena. Comes from the Soul of Spain album, all of which is extraordinary. The album cover says there were 11 "concertmeisters in the first chairs."
When I was little (I was the youngest of four) this is what my parents had to play for me when I went to bed. My dad had several Spanish LPs from 101 Strings and the only stereo in the house was in my brothers room and it was a long hallway...So I'm afraid my music of choice infringed on the whole household..at least until I fell asleep.
willow fellow - You are CORRECT ! I have this album, listened to this cut 1000 times- this is NOT it, lol. It's still a better rendition than most, so we should be happy for the posting .
@jakfak OH dude... it happened the same with my parents, and I still have the LP with it's pink cover and it was a double LP. Men, it really makes me feel like an young boy running around when I was 7 years! Good old time!!
@triplexten1 Yes, and it is much different from this. Especially after 2:00. My guess is that this recording was in a different venue from the Soul Of Spain LP. It is particularly evident at 3:25 here. Good Observation.
I have a different version of this on a record left to me by my Grandad "Around the World in Stereo with 101 Strings". on Marble Arch records. Anyone remember it? It has a picture of Apollo 11 on the front cover
My parents bought this album ("Soul of Spain") when I was a child. I still have the LP, but haven't posted on RU-vid. Can you post more from that LP? Thanks!
