Awhile ago I posted the first letra of this alegrías by David Lagos along with an unbelievably wonderful video of him singing it live accompanied by his brother Alfredo Lagos. Today find a couple more not to be missed videos of David performing it, along with the first letra. One is him live in Cádiz, and the other is him singing for Mercedes Ruíz dancing in a bata de cola during a rehearsal.
Alegrías
David Lagos
Que es chiquita y salerosa
no le pongáis tanta falta
que pa navegar yo tengo con mi barquita que me basta y sobra
She is small and charming
don't underestimate her
to sail I have my little boat who more than fills me
Below see David performing live with Pedro (Perico Navarro) and Santi (Santiago Lara), who accompanies us in class with Mercedes Ruíz on the Flamenco Tour to Jerez . . .
Stay tuned later for the next letra….
Live Flamenco in Spain
The Flamenco Tour to Jerez includes a private show hosted by Mercedes Ruíz. Often David Lagos is our singer for this show, which basically means if David is in town when we're there, he sings for us. Actually he sings directly to us. Increíble.
