I feel very lucky to have been at one of Ottmar Liebert's very first concert dates (September 5, 1990), when he was the opening act for Basia (remember her?) at the Palace Theatre in Cleveland. I usually hate opening acts, but Ottmar took my breath away. He was absolutely incredible. And of course, he went on to great things.
He has just released La Semana, a wonderful acoustic CD. Great music. It has been quite awhile since Ottmar has released any new tunes - he has been remixing, reissuing and generally futzing for years with tracks from his acclaimed Nouveau Flamenco CD, which features his classic signature piece, Barcelona Nights. This CD is a welcome reminder of what a great musician he is.
