James Robinson's music

Had gone to Cascal's at castro street in Mountain View to listen to James Robinson and his band. Fantastic combination of flamenco, latin jazz, turkish, italian and spanish rhythms. He has his own signature, very good chord work and intense melodic flamenco style finger work. There's a lot of energy he puts in, and he's got a stellar band of expert Congo drummers and a great backing rhythm/bass guitarist.

I love to support such talent, and bought all his three CDs. His website is:

and some links:


And my brother introduced me to him, as he was his instructor, so this was not a surprise, as I have been hearing great reviews from him from some years.

Presently loading all his CDs into my iTunes now.
