This sums it up just about right. Carmen were incredible, especially David Allen (not Daevid). Man that guy could play! Fandangos in Space is such an overlooked masterpiece imo. One of those truly unique sounding albums. ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack.

What, are you kidding me Pierre?!
A sprawling cultural duck like yourself, who is well versed in both French counterculture, RPI, South American in particular Brazilian music, and you haven't heard Fandangos in Space? It's like a perfect combination of flamenco, rock, prog and something sweet all together. I think you'll love it;-) ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack.

Viva Mi Sevilla is from Dancing on a Cold Wind, Carmen's masterpiece.
(Note: I should play Fandangos in Space once more. It is in my collection, but I am quite hooked on Dancing on a Cold Wind). -------------

I know, sorry if my post didn't express that. I kinda see these two as one album anyway. Always have. Similar feel and sound, plus they both pioneered this particular branching of Hispanic prog rock. To me they sound like a double album. ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack.

One album I am definitely grabbing when I see it :-) ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack.

I only have Fandangos In Space so I didn't know this song, and It's been so long since I played Ardeur. I'll go with Carmen, that song was awesome! |
