REVIEWS

“a glimpse of the greatest singers to record the music of the Andalusian Gypsies in the 30’s. This is potent emotive music.”

(Kerry Blech — Victory Review)

“Some of the earliest recordings by figures who dominated the first half of the 20th century: Pastora Pavon a.k.a. ‘La Niña de Los Peines’ her younger brother Tomas Pavon Manuel Vallejo one of the first non-gypsy singers hailed as a king; and the great voice of the flamboyant Manolo Caracol.”
