Montoro - Esencia. 1991 Perfil-Divucsa.
And yet another CD-R revisit. This album would be at the tail end of the LP only era, before CDs became de rigueur. 20 years later, LP only releases are back in fashion. Who would have thunk?
Montoro's sole album is a good example of
Flamenco Rock, past the 1970's glory days of course. The spiritual
successor to Triana's “Sombra y Luz” as it were. Make no mistake, this
album is as commercial as it is progressive. But it features fine lead
guitar, excellent Arabian vocals, and thoughtful compositions. Much
better than contemporary Medina Azahara, for example. Worth hearing,
though not exemplary by any means.
Priority: none
