Paco,with his flamenco gypsy background and a keen sense of adventure ,extended the realms of accoustic guitar for the vast and global jazz audience.
Absolutely shocking - one of the greatest guitarists ever.
In fact, in his epic exploits with John mclaughlin and Aldemeola in 'Friday night live', there are many moments when the other 2 guitarists seem to doing things with a lot of effort and Paco is chugging along effortlessly.
may his soul rest in peace.
