Dialogue: 0,0:00:19.87,0:00:25.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,while my mother was ill in the hospital for six months
Dialogue: 0,0:00:25.26,0:00:29.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,every single morning I visited her
Dialogue: 0,0:00:29.62,0:00:32.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,during the day i was with her and later in the day and at night I would compose
Dialogue: 0,0:00:34.60,0:00:37.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This album is impregnated
Dialogue: 0,0:00:37.79,0:00:42.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of those painful feelings, seeing how my mother was leaving
Dialogue: 0,0:00:42.38,0:00:45.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And I also told her once

Dialogue: 0,0:00:54.11,0:01:01.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and that is a good razon to dedicate the album Luzia with a "Z" because
Dialogue: 0,0:01:01.75,0:01:07.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It is important for me to clarify my mothers Portuguese origins
Dialogue: 0,0:01:07.70,0:01:10.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in Portuguese Luzia is spelled with a "Z"
Dialogue: 0,0:01:10.24,0:01:15.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So this album is definetly a full tribute to her.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:15.02,0:01:19.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There is also a song that is dedicated to Camaron
Dialogue: 0,0:01:19.41,0:01:23.45,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but the album in general is impregnated by that painful feeling only experienced when ones own mother is dying.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:24.15,0:01:26.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Every experience in life

Dialogue: 0,0:01:30.23,0:01:36.31,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and the pain when is so deep, it think you get used to it
Dialogue: 0,0:01:36.31,0:01:40.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to the point where pain is so intense but so is happiness
Dialogue: 0,0:01:40.75,0:01:49.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so, in a way I believe that what I write and compose is related with whatever has been experienced
Dialogue: 0,0:01:49.95,0:02:01.51,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If an intense and profound pain has been felt by someone, it is transmited into whatever you create or compose.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:01.51,0:02:08.51,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Flamenco is full of pain and sadness
Dialogue: 0,0:02:08.65,0:02:15.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of the persecution of towns and the andalucian marginalization, poverty, hunger, all that.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:15.98,0:02:21.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,there are many people that claim to have undergone hunger, but I
Dialogue: 0,0:02:21.19,0:02:27.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I did not experience hunger, my father made sure we did not experienced it
Dialogue: 0,0:02:27.13,0:02:29.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but we were in the verge of it
Dialogue: 0,0:02:29.03,0:02:30.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I thing that is important for any artist
Dialogue: 0,0:02:31.46,0:02:36.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Each album is like giving birth, it is painful I want to go crazy
Dialogue: 0,0:02:36.29,0:02:39.65,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I really do. It fills me up with anxiety and anguish
Dialogue: 0,0:02:39.65,0:02:41.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,fear and insecurity
Dialogue: 0,0:02:41.15,0:02:48.35,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I think it is not worth it and throw away more than half of what I compose
Dialogue: 0,0:02:48.35,0:02:52.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because I think is just not worth it
Dialogue: 0,0:02:52.07,0:02:55.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,making an album is an illness it turns into an illness
Dialogue: 0,0:02:55.62,0:03:02.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I suffer..suddenly I come up with a phrase that really makes me happy for five minutes
Dialogue: 0,0:03:02.39,0:03:07.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but after five minutes, the insecurities come back again
Dialogue: 0,0:03:07.95,0:03:11.65,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and the fears and doubts about if this is all worth it
Dialogue: 0,0:03:11.65,0:03:15.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,when I could be at the beach taking the sun
Dialogue: 0,0:03:15.15,0:03:17.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,having enough money to do that,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:17.02,0:03:22.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but there is something else inside me telling me to keep going and keep struggling
Dialogue: 0,0:03:22.15,0:03:26.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to keep living, to have that fullfilling sensation that I am still alive
Dialogue: 0,0:03:26.19,0:03:28.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and having something to say.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:28.58,0:03:33.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I want to make sure you all know that I dont pretend to portray myself as a singer in this album
Dialogue: 0,0:03:33.24,0:03:39.50,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it has been almost an obligation, because there are two writings in this album
Dialogue: 0,0:03:39.50,0:03:42.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,one, i dedicate to my mother and the other to Camaron
Dialogue: 0,0:03:42.08,0:03:48.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I sang in reference to the recording so later a professional singer could adapt his voice over mine
Dialogue: 0,0:03:48.02,0:03:55.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but I thought it was more intimate according to the circumstances and the real purpose of the song
Dialogue: 0,0:03:55.39,0:03:58.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,eventhough I realize he could have done a much better job
Dialogue: 0,0:03:58.46,0:04:03.25,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to have myself sing those lines was a real homage.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:03.25,0:04:07.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(guitars)
Dialogue: 0,0:04:12.93,0:04:15.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Guitarists in general
Dialogue: 0,0:04:15.46,0:04:19.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Of course guitarists dont even buy them, on the contrary they copy each other
Dialogue: 0,0:04:19.08,0:04:25.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,these guitarists have put me where I am and they know who Paco de Lucia is
Dialogue: 0,0:04:25.28,0:04:30.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that is why I always thing about the guitarists when I make an album
Dialogue: 0,0:04:30.05,0:04:34.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because they are the ones who will talk about it among themselves
Dialogue: 0,0:04:34.61,0:04:36.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and will say if the album is Ok or not.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:36.59,0:04:39.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I am not interested...
Dialogue: 0,0:04:39.03,0:04:42.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,there is still much to do with the acoustic guitar
Dialogue: 0,0:04:42.14,0:04:45.85,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,now play the electric guitar is quite interesting
Dialogue: 0,0:04:45.85,0:04:50.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because with the acoustic guitar, you play a note and it dies suddenly
Dialogue: 0,0:04:50.24,0:04:53.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,with the electric guitar you play a note and it can last ten minutes
Dialogue: 0,0:04:53.90,0:05:00.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it means that electric guitar gives you more tranquility because while the long note is playing you can think about which note to play next
Dialogue: 0,0:05:00.11,0:05:02.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,with the acoustic guitar you can not do that
Dialogue: 0,0:05:02.67,0:05:07.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,after one note the next must come quick because you ran out of sound
Dialogue: 0,0:05:07.46,0:05:13.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,much more challenging to play the acoustic guitar, it has more posibilities that an electric guitar
Dialogue: 0,0:05:13.75,0:05:22.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in which you can prolong the notes and have time to think.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:24.03,0:05:31.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I could not live without a guitar, but at the same time I dont live while playing
Dialogue: 0,0:05:31.28,0:05:34.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because it is such a difficult and ungrateful instrument
Dialogue: 0,0:05:34.70,0:05:39.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you dedicate all the hours in you life and all of a sudden
Dialogue: 0,0:05:39.70,0:05:45.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,one day you are completely fine in regards to your hands, brilliant
Dialogue: 0,0:05:45.03,0:05:48.51,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you go in front of people feeling perfect to play
Dialogue: 0,0:05:48.51,0:05:52.13,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and you just cant play, I dont know why, a disaster
Dialogue: 0,0:05:52.13,0:05:57.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It is an instrument where all matters, the lenght of you nails matters
Dialogue: 0,0:05:57.54,0:06:02.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Im talking about a microscopic difference in lenght
Dialogue: 0,0:06:02.54,0:06:05.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I dont know what is going on but it seems like it is the nail that not well filed
Dialogue: 0,0:06:05.36,0:06:07.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it is quite challenging instrument, very tough.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:08.11,0:06:10.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I dont have a good relationship with the guitar
Dialogue: 0,0:06:10.82,0:06:13.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I dont like it, really I cant stand it
Dialogue: 0,0:06:13.19,0:06:15.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(laughs)
Dialogue: 0,0:06:17.80,0:06:25.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[guitar playing]
Dialogue: 0,0:06:31.42,0:06:36.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Because flamenco has always been a lower category music
Dialogue: 0,0:06:36.26,0:06:40.59,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,maybe I giving it to much importance
Dialogue: 0,0:06:40.59,0:06:46.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,flamenco has always been music for Andalusian Gypsies
Dialogue: 0,0:06:46.55,0:06:49.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It played in the caverns
Dialogue: 0,0:06:49.38,0:06:53.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and, I could sum it up to this
Dialogue: 0,0:06:53.54,0:06:59.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I remember someone in my hometown saying "Paco de Lucia" plays the guitar really well, he is a phenomena
Dialogue: 0,0:06:59.90,0:07:03.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And there was this neighbor of mine that said the opposite
Dialogue: 0,0:07:03.10,0:07:03.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,He said he knew me so well when I was a young boy,
Dialogue: 0,0:07:03.10,0:07:03.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that my face as full of shit as his home, how can he play well- he said [laughs]
Dialogue: 0,0:07:03.10,0:07:09.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,He spoke in a sense trying to say that since he is ours he cant be good
Dialogue: 0,0:07:09.29,0:07:14.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it seams like everything that comes from outsider is better
Dialogue: 0,0:07:14.32,0:07:16.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that is something that happens not just in my country, but all over
Dialogue: 0,0:07:16.73,0:07:22.89,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,everything that is folkloric and autochtonous is not good enough
Dialogue: 0,0:07:22.89,0:07:27.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it is so much more well seen to go see a rock concert even if its a total wreck
Dialogue: 0,0:07:27.77,0:07:32.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,than to go see a local folkloric artist...
Dialogue: 0,0:07:32.10,0:07:35.25,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I dont know why, I cant understand, but it is what it is.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:35.55,0:07:39.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There are countries that do have a much more elevated cultural education
Dialogue: 0,0:07:39.60,0:07:44.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Maybe because they have more money, the kinder has been educated in music
Dialogue: 0,0:07:44.48,0:07:47.89,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and may be they know how to appreciate those things even better that we can do.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:47.89,0:07:50.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This is basically a flamenco guitar album
Dialogue: 0,0:07:50.82,0:07:59.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,very traditional, but also have percussions... Lute, guitar mandolin
Dialogue: 0,0:07:59.49,0:08:07.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Antonio Carmona plays cajon in a Buleria, for me he is the best player of all
Dialogue: 0,0:08:07.49,0:08:17.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and Luis Miguel he plays also the guitar mandolin, he plays very well is a good musician
Dialogue: 0,0:08:17.57,0:08:21.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Tino di Geraldo, Carlos Benavent
Dialogue: 0,0:08:21.04,0:08:30.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and Duquende, a singer that I like so much, he made some beautiful Tangos.
Dialogue: 0,0:08:30.33,0:08:39.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I always be in fusions, because as a Flamenco boy I never went to a School to learn music, I am a self taught person
Dialogue: 0,0:08:39.06,0:08:41.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,all I know was learned by hearing.
Dialogue: 0,0:08:41.04,0:08:47.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,...some times I felt I needed Technical skills of music to make a composition less painfull
Dialogue: 0,0:08:47.73,0:08:59.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because for me, to find a chord is harder than a person who has music skills and know how to read the chords and make harmony
Dialogue: 0,0:08:59.30,0:09:08.61,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And so, I never had the discipline to go to school, I though the best way to learn was meeting other musicians
Dialogue: 0,0:09:08.61,0:09:14.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,for example Jazz musicians, people at he verge harmonically.
Dialogue: 0,0:09:14.22,0:09:21.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,...and like I was curious, inquiring I never pretend not to be a Flamenco
Dialogue: 0,0:09:21.84,0:09:27.42,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,not even dedicate my self to play Jazz, my goal always was go to learn
Dialogue: 0,0:09:27.42,0:09:34.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,bring it back to Flamenco music and make it grow some way,
Dialogue: 0,0:09:34.06,0:09:41.42,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and Ketama I think is a splendorous Band, they really make an progression
Dialogue: 0,0:09:41.42,0:09:49.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,even the last album was not Flamenco, they move into Flamenco ways to make it them expression...
Dialogue: 0,0:09:49.46,0:09:59.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,all of they music has Flamenco intentions that I think is very positive
Dialogue: 0,0:09:59.19,0:10:03.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and like Ketama Band a lot of people will make amazing things
Dialogue: 0,0:10:03.44,0:10:08.53,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as I said, Why take so long to make an album?, Because the level is too high,
Dialogue: 0,0:10:08.53,0:10:15.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I can not come out with any kind of album, I have to make something really interesting, very surprising.
Dialogue: 0,0:10:15.22,0:10:24.100,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[guitar playing]
