Thanks for the post, I had not heard ... I had the pleasure of seeing Paco with John M and Al Di in Pittsburgh around 1981 or 82 - incredible.

Hi Chan, thanks for posting. I couldn't believe no one else commented here on his passing! I was aware of Paco from the 70's onwards as I liked Flaminco and when he teamed up with John M And Al Di, I was amazed at the sound the produced, stunning!

I was in Paris on holiday and saw it on the news. A true great has gone.
