Paco de Lucía (Francisco Gustavo Sánchez Gomes) Quotes
As a young man, my greatest inspiration was [flamenco singer] Camaron de la Isla, no doubt. That was the best time of my life I would say. I learned so much and matured in this period. Later, my collaboration with Chick Corea, John [McLaughlin] and Al [Di Meola] in the guitar trio was something very special. I was very afraid in the beginning how to play with these fine musicians. But I found my way and I'm sure their playing also changed my music a lot.

Seeing the play "A Lie of the Mind" clearly is part of why I wanted to direct it. I see hope at the end of this play.
