By the sullen rocky steps

The weekend previous I was privy to a Flamenco show in Sevilla. I have been told since about the concept of Duende, a somewhat undefined term which broadly translates as the soul of the performance. I also heard about the book titled Duende: A journey in search of Flamenco, by the author Jason Webster, which I [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=joerodriguez.wordpress.com&blog=1363669&post=185&subd=joerodriguez&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Ronda, Andalucia
From the 17th July onwards, I embarked on a new adventure. A different variety than the last. Still sun baked, and full of the unusual, I hope. However, this one, may already be in my blood. I can do nothing but gaze forward somewhat oracularly. To sunflower fields, oppressive days, electric nights, olive oil [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=joerodriguez.wordpress.com&blog=1363669&post=146&subd=joerodriguez&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
