Great flamenco guitarist. I love Cook s musical talent and this CD doesn t disappoint. There s only one song on the CD that I m not in love with like all his others.
CD Reviews (5 out of 5 stars) This is such delicious music it is hard to explain. It is so upbeat at first and then the music seems to go into a calmer piece. This CD creates images of sun soaked lands, of walking on warm beaches and of being on vacation in Mexico or Spain.
In a way it is a vacation for your mind. The guitar is seductive and will draw you into the music with abandon. It will grab hold of your heart. Each piece is more interesting than the next. In a way it is like a love story. The music makes you feel in love and happy. When you listen to one part of this CD you will think you are in Egypt! Then you will hear the sounds of the ocean waves and it so relaxing.
