Nuevo flamenco/World guitarist Johannes Linstead is again inviting us on another of his exotic and captivating journeys across the musical landscape he has come to conquer so well, this time with a beauty called simply Azul (“blue” in Spanish). With its flavorful and colorful flair, red should have been added to the color scheme for this one as the guitarist lights it up from an island perspective or as he offers up a new feel (for example, the style most will recall on Carlos Santana’s Supernatural album, in particular on track two’s “Cha Cha Chu,” which so reminds me of that super-hot “Smooth” from the Mexican icon’s CD. Linstead ignites that flame with the experience of one totally familiar with the value of hot guitar work to set a certain tone. The blending of hot electric oil with cool acoustic salve throughout the album is wildly refreshing.

Govi - Andalusian Nights (1999) Music

Posted by Designol at Dec. 28, 2023

Convincing proof that success follows its own path, Govi's life is one of many twists. He is a German-born musician who traveled to India before settling down in California and becoming a leading proponent of the nouveau flamenco genre anchored by Ottmar Liebert, Johannes Linstead, and others. On ANDALUSIAN NIGHTS, Govi collaborates with two other German New Age stalwarts, Anugama and Karunesh, to come up with the arrangements. ANDALUSIAN NIGHTS opens with the warm atmospheres of "Persuasion," the low bass murmurs and hand drums offset by Govi's delicate finger picking. "Rumba Tumba" and the brisk title track build in intensity, adopting the rapid, flamenco-style clapping strongly associated with the Gipsy Kings' most danceable tunes.
