hi everyone,
i think the best way for me (and i'm sure to everyone) to understand each rythm, is to listen a lot to songs. does anybody knows a cd that collect songs for each rythm?
p.s
how was the show of paco pena????

Liat, you can see my review of the Paco Peña show under the "Would You Shred?" thread. I was not thrilled by its flamenco-ness--it was entertainment for the masses who know nothing of flamenco.

There's a series of albums called "solo compas" that dedicate
a whole CD to each palo. Some have more than one, and there
are a couple of 'various' disks that combine different palos.

The handy thing is that these albums will often start with a
palo with guitar, palmas, singing, and sometimes dancing.
As you go through the tracks, you get the same palo, but
a part is removed. The last version will usually be just palmas
and or percussion.

It may be worth taking a look at nylonguitarist "dot" c o m . you have to sign up for a free membership, but once you do you can download two free cd's that might be just what you are looking for. One is a Flamenco Dance Rhythms cd that has about a dozen different flamenco styles both in slow and fast versions, plus it has three different 12 counts in both slow and fast, plus a "study in C". The second cd is called Buleria Brainwaves and is strictly the Buleria compas with background "white noise" I listened to that cd as I went to sleep last night and then much of this morning - I have the Buleria compas so drilled into me by now that I had to quit for fear that my heart would start beating a buleria compas lol. The owner of the site, Sal, seems like a pretty neat guy and he has a lot of good stuff on his site.

Thanks for picking up on this payul. I see you also posted a handy link. Was hesitant to do so myself because many forums dont allow links. Hmm maybe I should try reading the rules for a change lol.
