I prefer the Pepe Romero recording of this with the Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields, but this isn't offensive - a 5.

I've been meaning to upload Jim Hall's version for a while as well

I feel I am in the dentist office, just add the drill sound next room and the experience is complete.

Nice try, but not quite as moving as the Rodrigo/Paco De Lucia version.



Have to agree with this. This is OK, it's "nice" atmospheric music but no more...

The other is haunting.

Agreed, THE definite modern version, pure genius.

This is the second version of this beautiful song I've heard on RP now. I still recommend the haunting jazzy version titled "Follow Me" from the movie "Ghost in the Shell II: Innocence".

If you like this melody of this piece,I highly recommend the real deal done by Miles Davis on Sketches of Spain. My very first memory of music in 1960, with my dad putting the record on and playing along on his horn.


Oh dear.
Miles is no doubt god-like, but better read this:

B-Tribe... wonderful music when receiving a massage. Or late night work at the 'puter

This album is best when one succumbs to its entirety. Allow for total immersion. Then play Jonathan Elias' Prayer Cycle and wait for the peyote-esque buzz to wear off.....

THIS is what gets picked out of the B-Tribe ouevre?!
Fiesta Fatal is infinitely better... or most of the tracks on Suave Suave.

This is one of the most haunting and beautiful things ever written - but not this version. Too many ominous sound effects. It's moody enough without the theatrics. They've cluttered the gorgeous melody.
