Manitas de Plata, gypsy guitarist, dies aged 93

His fingerwork amazed me.

I think this is from about ten years ago.

Seriously, another loss for the classical guitar world after Paco de Lucia who died earlier this year but at a much younger age (66). 93 is darn respectable and hopefully he went nicely.

If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...
