It really is a wonderful combination and great music too. Thank you for that!

Now back in the US I cannot find this album on iTunes, although I have not yet tried record stores. Any hints on whether it is truly out and available in US?

This is about time. I mean there are some superb flamenco artists out there who are absolute masters of their instrument. The only trouble is a lot of them seem a bit hemmed in by their art. I believe this collaboration could be the biggest thing to rock flamenco since Paco De Lucia shocked the world playing with McLaughlin and DiMeola. I have waited for something like this for many many years. Bloody hell. This is about time. I mean there are some superb flamenco artists out there who are absolute masters of their instrument.

It was so good to hear the mixture of music and all around me seemed transfixed by the ensemble playing and the solos.

The fact that it has Bill Frisell on it helps too. I've always enjoyed the extended solo that Kenny Wheeler took on the quintet recording of First Snow too.

Looking forward to the album. Note: The Habichuela family name is Carmona (not Cormona). I was at the 2008 gig in Barcelona, great fun. Looking forward to the album.

I have been a huge fan of both for years. I had the occasion to meet Kenny in Philadelphia a few years ago...He is as kind a person as he is a gifted musician.

As usual the Quintet brought their A game to these shows. Last time I saw the band was in Kentucky about five years ago. Are you going to do any shows in the South ? It's been a long time. Hope Volume 2 comes out soon ! The Quintet’s Archive download sounds great. As usual the Quintet brought their A game to these shows. Last time I saw the band was in Kentucky about five years ago.

So, we decided start by making the DH logo shirt and see how people liked them. If people like these and we sell out, we'll definitely be looking at making more! Thanks for the feedback! - Team DH Hi Peter,
