Rey de Reyes, tribute to Paco de Lucia

Dear Paco,

I’m sharing this work, “Rey de Reyes”1, with eternal gratitude, as a gift to you for all that you have done

for flamenco guitar, flamenco music, music in general and for all of us. You have been a marvelous

benchmark for us. You have no idea how many of us have followed your every step and your radiant light

that has filled us forever with hope.

There is no other group or artistic discipline in which so many people have been in such overwhelming

agreement as to who was the best and greatest practitioner of their art. In the world of flamenco guitar, no

one ever doubted it-you were the greatest. It is an honor to have known you.
