Alec Dankworth - Spanish Accents

Facts Alec Dankworth's long-standing love of all things Spanish provided the inspiration for this album. Metheny, Corea, even Rodrigo are reinvented alongside traditional folk songs and originals in flamenco rhythms creating a wonderful and genuinely Spanish world. A heady mix of top British players - guitarist Phil Robson, saxophonist Julian Arguelles, Chris Garrick's gorgeous violin, and Alec Dankworth's bass interweaving with the genuinely Spanish drum work of Barcelona-based Marc Miralta make this an unusual line-up. The album also features the great Cleo Laine.
