Un Virtuoso...con sus dedos de terciopelo sutílmente roza las melodías del alma

Tiene magia en sus manos, no en vano es manitas de plata ...un espectáculo este hombre.

J'avais entendu Manitas ,un été dans le sud de la France....son jeu est merveilleux, authentique,pur ....C'était un magnifique Artiste ...Les Anges doivent chanter avec lui maintenant au ciel....Manitas jamais je ne vous oublierais ...

Manitas de Plata, realmente fue un icono del FLAMENCO, me encanta escucharlo es un maestro ese gitano !!!!!...... Sebastián. De Argentina.

I saw Manitas in the 70s on UK TV and have never forgotten the impression he made on me - his accuracy and musicality showed me what to look for in guitarists. That flowing, never-miss-a-note natural talent has guided me to the best guitarists in the world - Jeff Beck, Mark Knopfler, Gary Moore are the first 3 that come to mind although their genre is completely different!

Speechless after experiencing this performance...R.I.P Manitas de Plata absolutely stunning talent.

Virtuosismo y arte. Es como si tocara las fibras del alma de quien lo escucha con una delicadeza y respeto.

Il a inventé un style à lui tout seul,certe inspiré du flamenco mais c’est du Manitas!il jouais "lui" une musique brut,sauvage,mélancolique,puissante. Une virtuosité, une puissance,une générosité hallucinante il n’y a pas un soupçon de triche ni de nuances inutile dans sa musique, certe il ne faisait pas dans la dentelle mais ça musique est un torrent de vie qui emporte tout sur son passage ,ce n’est pas pour rien que les plus grands de ce monde le regardé et écoutez jouer la guitare avec des yeux d’enfant.Bref un magicien de la musique alors en ces temps morose où on est obligé de porter un masque,si vous avez le coup de blues écoutez du manitas et vous sentirez la liberté et la joie de vivre,plus efficace pour le moral que l’alcool,des cachets ou n’importe quelle drogue!

Me quede totalmente anodadado por Dios lo que tocaba este Genio parecia de otro planeta los angeles deben deleitarse con su musica. Gracias Maestro por esa magia que hacias con tus manos¡¡

Il n'y a jamais eu, il n'y a pas et il n'y aura plus jamais un virtuose de la guitare comme l'est Manitas de Plata !!! Hourra!! Bravo et merci !

Eximio guitarrista. Como muchos otros ya partió al infinito. Queda su música y su recuerdo. Gracias maestro.

On peut se nourir de cette musique ,il sera irremplacable,c,est un être d,exception.un musicien dans l,âme ,heureuse que sa musique soit venue jusqu,a moi

You showered us with euphoria of divinity here in a small corner of Kathmandu. The valley resonated with your amazing magical notes, each bearing tiny drops of cosmic love. Watched this video with my writer father and mother, and my musician brother : our own kind of Gypsy family... May "Manitas de Plata's" soul rest in lush and wild musical peace!

this is the first footage of manitas that i've seen, and wow! his face is so calm, but it's all fire underneath. unbelievable!

Te quiero tío manitas en la gloria, desde Sabadell, menudo arpegio😁❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

My parents got two records of his in 1965, when I'd first started playing and expressed interest in flamenco. I saw him in SF in late '66, and it's still one of the most phenomenal guitar performances I've ever seen- and that included Hendrix, Clapton, Beck, John McLauglin, and lots more. the man is beyond brilliant. whew!

Que viva por siempre Manitas de plata , natural, extrovertido, terrenal, audaz, indomable y grandioso🙏❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

A mis padres les gustaba mucho este gran guitarrista, a mi me gusta tambien!!, es un gran artista!!! Oscar de Bs As

Maestro! He gives meaning to the word virtuoso. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 So calm as he plays.

many years ago i saw him live in The Hague NL together with my mom, when he stopped playing there was a moment of silence in awe, then 10 minutes standing ovation!

OH POR DIOS PERO QUÉ COSA! Por un momento cerré los ojos y pensé que eran varios guitarristas pero ha sido solo él! Tengo un nuevo ídolo.

Manitas est l'un des plus grands guitaristes gipsy de tous les temps. Dans ses mains résonnent la beauté du coeur et des sentiments, de très fortes émotions surgissent à l'écoute de ce morceau, tout simplement en passant par le chemin de Ronda... tout en rondeur, tout en douceur, le tout rythmé avec conviction et poésie

Quel talent!!!!Manitas de Platas est une excellent guitariste. J'adore la musique espagnole!!!!Merci beaucoup!!!

Me quito el sombrero.sencillamente imprecionante🤗

Quel régal j'entends le roi du flamenco qu'il joue bien de la guitare c'est merveilleux merci Manitas de plata trop bien merci beaucoup

Un maître incontesté de la guitare gitan. Repose en paix Manitas.

Manitas de Plata ... THE BEST GUITAR PLAYER. His stile is unique, he is great master of flamenco technique...i think in all styles of guitar world ..

je l'avais entendu jouer dans le Sud de la France..Manitas était un magnifique musicien riche de cette merveilleuse tradition .La musique qu'il joue vient de son âme...Emotions...

Bravo au plus grand guitariste de Flamenco du monde merci a toi Repose en paix....

I don't care that purists object to his taking liberties with the traditional rhythms of the Flamenco compas. Manitas was a great artist and formed his unique musical personality. When you heard the sound of his guitar, you knew immediately who it was. When I lived in France, I saw him often on TV and he was a household name. My cousin one day was driving through southwestern France and had car trouble. His car stopped near some gypsy caravans. Out came Manitas de Plata and members of his family who actually helped my cousin get his car going. Fame and fortune didn't seem to affect him.

Little Hands of Silver...you restore and refresh me with every listen...Thank You for that Gift

I like Manitas playing & watching his face...he's having as much fun playing as I am listening. What a treasure...

Manitas, we loved you when you came on a visit to Richard and Miriam Bauer's apartment in Santa Monica. You were brilliant beyond words. You were so wonderful in every way; gracious, kind all good things. I will love your forever. Ron Mellish

Merci pour ce talent et cette générosité, adieu Manitas, y tu restes dans nos coeurs et nos oreilles!

I remember seeing him on UK Opportunity Knocks in the late 1960's. I was a young boy and spell bound by his playing. Glad we can now watch him again on KZfaq. Recuerdo verlo sobre las "llamadas de oportunidad" del UK, en el a fines de 1960's. Era un niño joven y temporada atada by su jugar. Se alegrar de que podemos mirarlo sobre KZfaq otra vez ahora.

I read that Picaso was so moved he drew on the guitar after the performance. I found Manitas in a second hand shop fifty years ago, so glad I did.

Bought his first album HOMAGES in the 70s. Been a fan ever since. I think this is from that period. Get hold of a copy if you can . Its a Masterpiece.

"Little Hands of Silver", right up there with the very best. El duende. Bravo !

Saw him perform with his brothers at the Barbican in London, 1985 - blew my mind. How one musician with one instrument can sound an orchestra all on his own - awesome.

Me and my buddy watched this the other day. Our mouths were agape the whole time out of pure awe. Amazing

Absolutely amazing! Have loved his music for over 40 years. He never ceased to amaze me!

I once found a record la guitare d'or from CBS 1970. Never heard of him before. It blew my mind away. This Manitas de Plata (I don't know which element would aptly describe what his hands are doing, but it must be far beyond silver) he came from outer space, that's for sure. While his technique is dazzling there so much soul in his music, it just gives me the shivers. Manitas rules the universe!

absolutamente asombrado de la profundidad del sonido que sacaba esta bestia a la guitarra. El corazón y el alma espesados en los dedos

Intense! I am so lucky to have the 3 records of the Classic Library set of his.

!Qué belleza¡ Puro o no, es un Maestro. Mis reverencias desde el Perú

Вы Голос Вселенной! Прелестно и не превзойденно.Маэстро!

Grand merci à ce magicien et à sa finesse !! On vous adore Mr Manitas de Plata

notice also, how he walks on to rapturous applause and bows and murmours humbly, his thanks to the audience, realising they'll never hear him, he just gets on with it - and once more, the guy shows us, he is, for all time, the king of flamenco guitar. praise be.

You will never be forgotten! Rest in peace!

Merci grand Manitas, virtuose et poète de la guitare et du flamenco authentique!

LONG LIVE MANITAS!!!! . Unique and eternal passion in his play !!! OLÉ M V.

Grandiose, sublime, époustouflant ! C'est fort. Merci.

Me encanta como entra al escenario!!!

this man actually is the best guitar player in the world I think. his left hand is amazing, as he uses arpeggios like they're powerchords. but other than 'normal' guitar players, his right hand is also like, magically fast and accurate. He can play 3 different things with 5 fingers. and opposed to modern guitar solos which are great of course, this piece has a lot of melody and feeling in it, and not just some random notes played as fast as possible. legend this man

It is in the breaking of the "rules" that great new doors are opened in expression and new directions in Art are founded. It has always been so it is the way progress is made. That when someone has the courage to blaze new directions and listens to the beat of his own drum and the voice of his own muse is where creativity really lives and thrives.

Maestro de Maestros !

grande manitas como tocava nao ha outro igual amei

Extraordinario !!! Canta con la guitarra !

I first heard Manitas de Plata back in 1968!!! I have been a devotee ever since....

Une légende du flamenco gitan en France, Manitas de Plata une idole quand j'étais jeune, et aujourd'hui je suis émue par sa disparition ! Maestro, reposez en Paix, on ne vous oubliera pas !

repose en paix Manitas

Essa música é maravilhosa. Manitas de Plata foi um gênio do violão flamenco! É como se o violão contasse uma história, com momentos ora tristes, ora calmos, ora violentos e turbulentos. Uma peça difícil de ser executada, somente pelas mãos de um mestre assim é possível.

Un fenómeno total..Salud

My father bought an album in france during the early seventies with this on. Fortunately he kept it for this is like reviving old memories from a spain which is long gone. Viva Manitas

Eight minutes of absolute guitar heaven! Thanks!!!

Beautiful and soulfull..the power and the glory of great music

Bravo. The one & only Manitas De Plata!!!

sou cigano portugues e adoro ouvir o grande manitas !!

This piece changed my life back in 2008. I spent 3 amazing days with Manitas 2 years ago, he showed me so much and he is one of the most generous people I have met and become friends with. A genius.

The "ARTIST",un génie quelle dextérité! Il faut se souvenir de mec génial avant qu'on lui rendre rapidement hommage à titre posthume.Aimons-le vivant

Gran guitarrista flamenco,sin duda.

Tuve oportunidad de escucharlo y sentir la atracción del virtuosismo al tocar la guitarra y nunca imaginé que salieran esos maravillosos sonidos . Dios bendiga a MAnitas de Plata donde se encuentre.

incomparable...

C'est toujours un enchantement que de t'écouter, encore et encore !!!

No te pases!!!? Es magistral 🤯 me quedé fascinada Dios sirenas lo escuché 2020 y yo que me emocionaba con los gipcy kings!!!!

GAMMES et PICADO UNIQUE, ce morceau est une merveille, bravo l'artiste

I have just watched this video for the first time in 2 years and it affected me the same time as the first time I saw it...who cares if he "took liberties" he was a fantastic artist...may he Rest In Peace...

Merci a toi pour les beaux moments passés ensemble, toi l’enchanteur du son avec ta guitare inépuisable. Un accord s’éloigne, une complainte se perd et le voyage reprend…. Embrasse une guitare pour nous et repose en paix l’ami

Even if you wouldn't like this... You still have to admit this is fabulous playing!

I also met Manitas some 40 years ago in Arles, France. He was just fabolous.

Descanse en paz y alegre a los angeles !!!!

He was often on the tv in the early sixties and still remember when the announcer said that he was a Spanish gypsy and he carried all his wealth on his hands with his gold rings ,for some reason as a kid that fascinated me ,,,,it was a different world of course ,,kids today

le plus en tout guitariste ! grand messager de nos envies et de nos manques aussi ! si courageux ! respect

What a gift! My father took me to see him @ Adelaide Town Hall in the 1970s .... it was lifechanging.

Un grand Merci .Dios Siempre para ti.

la musique qui adouci le coeur et les moeurs manitas de plats paix a son âme

I have seen him the first time life in Germany in 1972 - amazing, and I started to play guitar by myself

Merci à toi pour les deux beaux moments passés ensemble. Beau moment musical

Manitas de Plata fue, es y será el mayor monstuo y maestro de la guitarra española y el flamenco, inigualable, grandioso, eterno, magnífico, Manitas ha marcado un antes y un después en esta musica, con sus casi 100 millones de discos vendidos. Unico, esplendido, colosal, ha inspirado a toda una generacion y hoy, 6 de noviembre, lamentamos su muerte, toda una pérdida mundial. Descanse en paz maestro, nunca le olvidaremos. R. I. P. 1922-2014

Un vrai régal !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

me gusta mucho manitas de plata uno de los grandes ke yo alomejor por joven tengo 35años i no savia ke esistia asta k lo descubri i no paro de ver sus videos como tocaba i intentar aprender de el me gusta mucho como gitano ke soi me encanta

The Best meilleur guitariste du monde et de loin................................... 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Como alguien ya lo ha dicho, "puro o no", Manitas de Plata (EPD) es inimitable. Su técnica (lo que hace) y su fuerza interpretativa son extraordinarias. Se nota que siempre está improvisando, lo que es una exigencia en la guitarra flamenca. Como él es un gitano francés, los ritmos del flamenco los hace a su manera. Los puristas tendrán muchos reparos, pero nadie puede desconocer que llega y cautiva a las personas. Era admirado por Picasso y por Salvador Dalí. Muchas gracias.

maîtrise totale !

Dios porqué tant de discussions ! Manitas n'a j'amais appris la musique c'était un don ! Il ne savait pas lire ! Pour l'avoir fréquenté de plus comme voisin rue de l'amandier etlui la valferre a Montpellier, quant il m'accompagnait à mon travail pendant que je lui lisé la presse aprés son retour d'amérique ou il venait de triompher ! Les trés bon guitaristes espagnols et autres eux ont appris le solfège est savent lires ! ADIOS MANITA L'INÉGALABLE ! dans le contexte décrit plus haut ,assez de bavardages ! 👍🤩💙🙌🙌🙌🙌

Se fSue Manitas de Plata,tambien el nos ha dejado,se fue un hombre que amo su guitarra,Manitas de Plata,un gran guitarrista,que tuvo unas condiciones y grandes cualidades,y una guitarra gitana y bonita de escuchar,mucha fama ha tenido Manitas de Plata,ha sido espectacular,ha dejado un bonito recuerdo en los buenos aficionados a la guitarra,y unicamente nos queda por decir OLE POR USTED MANITAS, DEP, Seguro que con Manolo y con Jose ya estas tocando,por el Camino de Ronda vengo cantando.alfonso alegria compositor y poeta

juste...chapeau bas !

gipsy Kings és maravilhoso!

Magique moment musical avec l'enchanteur Manitas De Plata

Manitas had a flamenco fire 🔥 God within his fingers. 😮
