Not flamenco
But how you feel about it will depend very much on what sort of music you're looking for. Having to record this pot-boiler must have felt to Paco and Ramón like Leonardo would have felt had he been forced to paint by numbers.
If you want an album of impeccably played Latin (and other) standards, backed by gooey strings, then this will suit you perfectly.
If, on the other hand, you're misled by the names of two of the best guitarists of their generation into thinking that this has something to do with Flamenco, then you're in the wrong place.
Note the glazed expressions in the photograph, and how Paco can't resist sneaking a bit of alegrías into the introduction of "Save the Last Dance for Me", just to relieve the boredom.
