Many's the day or night this played in my car as I traveled the western states as a saleman past vast expanses....the music always felt like a horseback ride at a traveling canter to me. The Spanish love and know horses.
ANDALUSIAN NIGHTS is an exquisite adventure into the land of intrigue, passion and sweet persuasion. With sparks of Nouveau Flamenco, the flair of Latin rhythms and the allure of Gypsy guitar, Govi's melodies are warm, sensual, rare and ultimately irresistible…
I was turned on to his "live" version first. This is lovely as well... VAMOS CHIQUITO !!!.This melody is swaying, how can one not get up and move to this ?.
Govi and Ottmar Liebert are the two favorite flamenco guitarists of mine.....their music is so relaxing and cool. You can find them in record stores under the genre: New Age.
If you Like Govi,and his style of nuevo flamenco I have a few other artist to recommend. Peter White, Oliver Serano Alve, Jesse Cook, Gary B, Bella Sonus, John Mclaughlin, Al di Meola, Paco de Lucia, Strunz & Farah, to get started with. there is one of those that is truely an exceptional talent. Oliver Serano. his music is truely enchanting, 26 different instruments used in his music and some I not only have never heard of but together ,wow.
GOVI is a great exponent of the Spanish Guitar especially creating his own improvisations in Flamenco Style with a lot of Indian Classical Music influences. I'm from Bangalore, India and I do a lot of improvisation on the Ghatam [Percussive Pot] would love to do an Acoustic gig with GOVI.....Hey Mr. Govi está escuchando ou?
Here we go trying to categorize and box it too appease our small minds! It's just plain beautiful!!!! New Age, flamenco, neuvo flamingo, rhumba flamenca blah blah.....can we not appreciate it without having to label it!!!!
The first 10 seconds take me out of this world. Very melancholic. It reminds me of another guitar piece that I don't know. Anyone could help me find it? I don't know why it makes me think of Antonio Banderas. Maybe it's in one of his movies.
