Google Honors Paco de Lucía on His 69th Birthday

Seeing this tribute to the late flamenco guitar master, Paco de Lucía who would have turned sixty nine years old today, gave me a HUGE smile this morning.

Check out this beautiful online exhibition, Memories of Paco, from the Instituto Andaluz del Flamenco via Google.

Here's what today's Google Doodle on google.es looks like:
