Review title: Hot funk cool punk even if it's old junk . . .
Product review: it's still Rock & Roll to me, music fan. Who cares what Liebert, Cook, Lopez, Armik et al. call their music? Flamenco guitar music is no longer to be viewed as a narrow, strict artform with no room for innovation and growth. The influence is there, whether or not these new artists learned from old school flamenco guitar masters from Spain or not. You think rock & roll purists cried foul when punk, heavy metal and then alternative transformed the classic rock & roll landscape of the 50's and 60's? As for country, it sounds nothing like it was 20 or 30 years ago and yet it's still called country. And I'm not even mentioning the growing new sub-genre called alt-country. Like the improvisational jazz purists who cried and moaned about smooth jazz destroying their high-and-mighty artform, flamenco purists need to find something better to do with their time.
