This collection is a unique tour of the work of Paco de Lucia from 1964 to 2004. For a Flamenco artist, the opportunity to play in the Royal Theatre (Teatro Real) in Madrid, that temple of classical music, represents an important goal in an artistic career. Paco de Lucía achieved this and more by marking the first of these dates with the recording of his first live album. The album shows off a range of Flamenco styles, with his older brother Ramón de Algeciras on second guitar. As each song selected for the occasion is in a different style, together they are like a summary of his creative trajectory up to this point.

Five years after Almoraima, three after his experience with Falla, and his recent flirtations with Corea, McLaughlin, Di Meola and Coryell, this revolutionary album appears which, as Paco Sevilla notes in his book, is a declaration of independence. This is the first album with the participation of The Sextet with whom Paco would go on to mark out a new sound for Flamenco music.

This collection is a unique tour of the work of Paco de Lucia from 1964 to 2004. Since Almoraima (1976) Paco had not recorded an album which we could call authentically Flamenco. Not like his early recordings, which centred on classic guitar toques as played in concert. On Siroco, he abandons for the moment the sound of The Sextet to mark out in eight pieces the new vanguard of Flamenco creation. A record for lovers of good music, a mature and worthy work.

Here he returns to the Flamenco percussion of the zapateado (foot stamping) of the bailaor Antonio Valdepeñas, and the castanets and claps of Antoñita Imperio and Pilar la Cubanita.

Even as far back as the XVI century, the identification of Spanish musicians with the musical traditions of Latin America is fundamental for understanding the processes that have given shape to the music of Spanish culture. This is even more notable for artists from Cádiz, that privileged region of old Europe for business with the Americas.

This collection is a unique tour of the work of Paco de Lucia from 1964 to 2004. Spanish classical music had always aroused profound interest in Paco de Lucía. First came the album Lorca (1967), the records of Andalusian and Iberoamerican classics (65-69), afterwards came his magnificent work with Falla (1968) and from 1991 we must add this Concierto de Aranjuez and three pieces from the ‘Suite Iberia’ by Albeniz. His pledge here is clear: to offer out of the most profound respect a new perspective on the Classical Spanish canon, in Flamenco.
