Carlos Santana – Nylon Tones

02004-08-28 | Uncategorized | 3 comments

With all due to respect to my brothers Paco de Lucia and Ottmar Liebert, the best acoustic nylon tones I hear are from B-Tribe.

That’s what almost 40 years of playing guitar real loud will do to ya… : )

But seriously, nice to hear my name mentioned by Carlos. B-Tribe, by the way, is a project by German Keyboardist Claus Zundel, who calls himself The Brave. I believe he sampled a variety of Flamenco guitarists for his first album, but for his latest, called 5, he used a guitarist from Ibiza named Paco Fernandez. It appears that this Paco put out a solo album last year, which I haven’t heard.

    Yeah, when Carlos Santana puts your name right next to Paco’s, you know you’re doing something right!!!! :) That’s awesome…about B-Tribe, have you heard any of their work? Maybe I’ll pick up an album of theirs to check out, if you have any specific recommendations…
