It's obviously you, not me thinking in such categories. Why should I not say that I dislike Spanish music?

What I really hate (!) is the consummate loss of what has once been called "freedom of speech".

Why you chose me from a not-so-small pool of those who obviously dislike them?

Because I am German...?

Not this one, but some of their music does. I just watched it again last night with the kids.

If R&G were played in elevators I wouldn't get off at any floor, and I and the other lift occupants would be dancing like crazy. Say what you like about this pair, but their music sure has zip and energy and could no way be considered to be background muzak. I'd love to see this pair live, I really would. The musicianship and brio is just extraordinary. 9 from the Nottingham jury.

 

You might check with Romeotuma. Much experience w/ hotels, I hear, so perhaps the same w/ elevators? Bound to be one somewhere playing this.

The duo I'd like most to see in an intimate setting, although I probably blew any hope years ago, sadly. Love their output.

It sounds to me a bit more 'con' than 'brio' to me, but if thy're your cup of rioja, they used to live in Ireland (may still do so) but they are on  an extended break due to injuries to Gabriela caused by her percussion on the guitar.

They would need to serve food in the elevator, too, or we would all collapse! You definitely need to see them live, they are unbelievable.

Way too much of this bombastic, one-dimensional outfit here on RP.  There are dozens of great flamenco / Spanish guitar recordings out there if you really want to touch on that genre.   Of course few of them are young hipster couples, but we are about the music, right?

Dunno, I believe their genre has a very limited sound, and however good this song might be, it sounds like I've heard a lot of times before.

I saw them in concert in Mpls in October in a small theatre. They are more impressive in person than I would have thought. They really enjoy playing in front of an audience and put on a great show.

  I agree. Truly excellent jump from ELO (Fire on High). And to ELO from Coldplay (Viva la Vida).  But this one's the first one I really like out of the three (bumped it to a 9)

They are not siblings, nor ex lovers, just good friends who used to play in a heavy metal band together. If possible check out their DVD. Its great! Just like them!{#Notworthy}
