Comments

Equivalent release: Mercury MG-50295 (mono).

RFR pressing: although this is NOT the earliest RFR-1 copy, it still has great sound with fine stereophonics and presence.

Personal Impression (and brief notes)

A great Spanish guitar album by the Celedonio Romero and his sons.

Strictly Personal Rating (to what extent I could enjoy this album)

9 out of 10
