New York Times article on Charo

An interesting article on the cuchi cuchi girl.  I remember her doing the shimmy on many tv shows and saw her play the guitar a few times. Little did I know that she was a child prodigy to Segovia.  Apparently  she is a world class flamenco guitarist.  Who knew?  Can any of you recommend good Charo albums or other flamenco musicians?

I met her @ her husband's restaurant years ago.

Used to collect Cugat's art work, but now only have 2 serigraphs and 1 original (Golda Meir holding a missile/bomb) left.

Was always aware of her musicianship (may have seen her play on television - not certain).
