Manolo Sanlucar
Candela
RCA (Spain) 1980
PL-35310 (LP)
sleeve : EX+(slightly wear on corner.)
media : EX/EX(some slightly noise.)
An album released in 1980 by Manolo Sanlúcar, one of the defining figures of modern flamenco guitar, active since the late 1960s and often spoken of in Spain in the same breath as Paco de Lucía. The lineup features an outstanding cast of Spanish musicians, including drummer Pepe Sánchez—known for landmark works such as Regresión and Signo de Cáncer—alongside Eduardo Gracia, Jaime Muela, Pepe Oliver, and others. From the standout B1, where dry-toned guitar and flute take flight over primitive, driving percussion, to the album as a whole, this is a powerful statement of guitar-led instrumental music. Rooted in traditional flamenco rich with melancholy and passion, yet boldly and aggressively arranged with jazz rock elements woven throughout, it stands as a true classic of the genre.
B1: Oripando
B4: Kato-San
