Paco de Lucía, 1973, from *Fuente y caudal*. Solo by *Paco de Lucía*.

A rumba with bongos and bass that became a Spanish hit single and brought flamenco guitar to a wide audience.

Entre dos aguas is a rumba stripped to essentials: Paco de Lucía's guitar, bongos and an electric bass holding down a simple, rolling vamp. Over that relaxed groove he spins out melodic phrases and sudden bursts of blinding picado, moving between catchy hooks and virtuoso runs without ever breaking the easy feel. The record became a hit single in Spain and carried flamenco guitar to listeners who had never heard a tablao. Its success showed that the tradition could meet popular music without losing its fire. Listen for the contrast between the lazy, repetitive bass line and the guitar's lightning flourishes; the calm underneath is what makes the speed on top so exhilarating.
