Question Encuentros Flamenco DVDs

Wondering if any of you have any of the Encuentro Productions Flamenco Guitar instructional DVDs. I have a few of them and really enjoy watching them as I pick up something new each time. My favorite by far is the Gerardo Nunez mostly due to his relaxed approach and teaching style.

Here is the Encuentro line up:
• Paco Serrano
• Enrique de Melchor
• Tomatito
• Merengue de Córdoba

• Rafael Riqueni
• Pepe Habichuela
• Moraíto
• Chicuelo
• Gerardo Nuñez


You can say these guys can play a Flamenco song or two...


Here is a link for more info:
Encuentro Productions / La Guitarra Flamenca


So which one is your favorite? Or if you have not purchased one which one would you be most interested in?

I don't have the money to invest in many DVDs etc..

So I've been collecting some stuff on the cheap courtesy of youtube. I got my hands on a free downloder which converts the files to a standard video format. I've been downloading videos of folks like Sabicas, Paco De Lucia, Manitas de Plata, and many others. I've also picked up some short instructional videos by several people who are putting out some decent stuff. I've been picking them up before youtube can go to that fee for download deal they are trying to set up.

Its amazing how huge of a repository YouTube is for Flamenco. Footage of really rare Flamenco video is readily available. Its only a matter of time before YouTube either removes them or starts charging for them right?

Which is your favorite video so far?

My favorites are actually several posted from a live concert in Berlin around 1975 by Manitas de Plata:

YouTube - Manitas de Plata - Por el camino de Ronda

Since he asked "how about a little Flamenco?" in this next one I guess he didn't consider the first song Flamenco:

YouTube - Manitas de Plata - Sangre Flamenco

Then him playing a rumba with his son Manero:

YouTube - Manitas De Plata & Manero - Rumba
