The title is a little deceptive, I think.
I was expecting more 'fire' in the music.
It's okay, but I have been having a hard time finding anything really good to dance flamenco to.
This is the best one I have bought so far though.

1956 found me in the U.S. Navy and a fellow shipmate from Clovis, NM had two LP's of Sabicas. We listened to them for the two and a half years we spent in the USS Shangri-La. Those years made me a Sabicas fan and I was delighted to find Flamenco on Fire at Amazon. If you have never experienced Sabicas, and you love spanish quitar, then try Flamenco on Fire.
July 31, 2008There's a wee mistake on the first track--some dead air and garbling--but aside from that the CD is really first rate. I gave it to relatives for Xmas and they were quite enthusiastic. The low price sweetens it also.
December 24, 2007I had seen Sabicas live in Spain in the early 60th and bought his vinyl record at that time. Listening to this CD brought back fond memories and over the years his playing had improved which almost seems to be impossible.
I highly recommend this CD to anyone who is interested in authentic flamenco.

It is a treat to hear Sabicas' unaccompanied guitar work, but the packaging is inexplicably careless. It's more than the problem of skipping on the first track, or its repetition. The last FIVE tracks are repetitions of earlier tracks, and the insert gives no information about the songs, their traditions, or the artist, a man with a very interesting story. The insert also only has a sadly patronizing little bit about "authentic" music, but nothing on what that this authenticity means or why it is so fascinating.
