Michel Camilo & Tomatito ‘Spain Forever’ (Decca)

Dominican pianist Michel Camilo and Spanish guitarist Tomatito, have become one of the great musical pairings of the century. Back in 2000, after being friends for years, the two maestros recorded the seminal album ‘Spain’, which won the Jazz category in the first ever Latin Grammy awards. In 2006 they were at it again with ‘Spain Again’. It has taken them 10 years to come together to complete the trilogy; at last the long-awaited ‘Spain Forever’ arrives. Camilo's flawless technique and rhythm alongside with Tomatito’s virtuosity come together once again to deliver if maybe not their masterpiece, without doubt a beautiful work of art.
