Saturday in Manhattan

Actually it’s Sunday, because it’s almost one in the Morning. Playing two shows a night is quite the work-out, especially when playing solo, and yesterday and today the Blue Note held the second show for half an hour, which meant I played from 23:00 until 00:15. I don’t know why and didn’t bother to ask.

Tonight’s first show was probably the best I have done here at the Blue Note this week. I am going to bed, but here are a few links I found entertaining.

Interesting bit, for me, is that the Imax camera, while analog and huge and heavy, does still have four times the resolution of the Red video cameras.

    I’m not entirely sure what the point of this UN recognition business is, but here’s some more info from their side:

    In other flamenco news, Diego del Morao (Moraíto’s son) just put out his first album, which has pretty much been the most anticipated CD in flamenco for about a year. The first track is here:
