      The left hand part is a piece of cake really. you won't sound flamenco with only being able to play sound left hand. Picks are a big NO in this form of guitar art. But of course Paule takes mano izquierda to the next level, just be fair about that.

      ***** you are right, I stand corrected. I accept this this little impro of his, he certainly is a respectable guitarist. I just wonder how would he sound had he learned to utilize I M fingers for picado. Rasgueados, unfortunately sucked big time, almost as cheesy as any student's first attempts at guitar playing.. :)

    I love the humility of this man. He doesn't pretend to be an expert at anything but he gleans so much influence from every style of music and appreciates everything he learns in the process. What a true musician to feel everything he hears in the notes. I don't think any comment is a credit worthy of the absolute skill of Paul Gilbert.

      I'm really curious to see how you play flamenco, guys, if this piece is "painful to watch" and he's "incapable of" doing that. I'm not an expert in flamenco, moreover, I'm not a big fan of what he's doing with electro, but(!), I think, it's just not fair to say that it sounds bad.

    From a flamenco standpoint, this really does sound like a shredder attempting to play on a classical guitar. But as a stand-alone piece without it trying to be called "flamenco," this is very good.

    I love the quality of the recording; it's right up there with the best of 'em- I can see the 2 mic's in front of the guitar ( which must a high end instrument with seasoned tonal woods- ) The room's natural acoustics also contribute to the overall decadent tone from this stellar performance- excellent technique and sonic passion, let's face it- and the end of this piece is superb as well- I think Paul Gilbert should consider doing a World Tour of pure classical compositions

    People should get this straight! PG is not a flamenco player at all. Of course e.g. Paco de Lucia who barely didn't do anything else but playing flamenco his entire life, is a lot better doing it. But this is possibly the only piece of flamenco PG ever did. And keeping that in mind, he really did a very good imitation of the sound of this style. And he played absolute flawless and musical. If he would decide to do nothing but flamenco for the next 5 years or so, I bet he would be an amanzing flamenco player.

    Rasgueados really sucked, but Paul is forgiven for all eternity since this is not his area. Paul is someone I have highest regard for, his electric guitar playing is bordering with the realm of impossible - so judging him based on inadequate right hand technique and non-existent compás would be unfair, really, specially when he himself so humbly admits that he can't play flamenco... What a character! Theme seems taken from some Malaguena, also had Zambra-like and classical guitar elements.
    Would be awesome if he persisted in further exploration into guitar world and learned how to utilise his right hand fingers, wrist and specific right hand techniques in flamenco way. Given that he'd had his fingernail grown to be able to create flamenco tone as well. With his sense for precision and musical genius, I believe it would not take long for him to achieve very high skill level. For those who have no idea about contemporary flamenco please search names such as Jose Manuel Leon, Gerardo Nunez, Diego del Morao, Vicente Amigo etc.. - you will be amazed how many hidden dimensions of expression and dexterity could exist within trully well utilized flamenco right hand..
    PAUL IS GENIUS, ANYWAY.

      His attempt at playing the style is quite good. He has some of the vocabulary and the piece has many of the elements from Flamenco. Jose Manuel Leon, Gerardo Nunez, Diego del Morao, Vicente Amigo are masters. But Paul blows away most of the Nuevo Flamenco players who peddle that New Age stuff. He could really develop into a great Flamenco player if he wanted to.

      I have checked him out extensively. I enjoy some of his work. Like I said, I think there may be other guitarists that are technically greater but in my opinion, PG is the best. Plus, the man taught Buckethead, if that counts for anything.

    • @raybarnette7392

      ***** feel free to fact check this, but Buckethead took lessons from Paul Gilbert. Its a matter of opinion anyway. There are people who think jimmy page and kirk hammet are the greatest in the world. I would say Marty Friedman.

      Don't quit playing , technique and dexterity isn't everything as long as your creative , as good as Paul is , he does lack a little in the creativity department , although he obviously makes up for in technical ways , but like I said that's not everything you can aspire for
