Customer Reviews:

Great new Album.......2000-11-29

El Pirata seems to be Yussi's first solo record.I hope there will be more.I can relax to it but also get excited about the playing. This record is better than most of it's genre.I hear strong central-american and middle-eastern influences.A must for all spanish guitar freaks.I'd like to see this guy play live.There is accordeon and trumpet to be heard,also yussi plays mandolin, so it never gets boring.The first 5 songs are my favorites.I'm looking foreward to the next release.James.

beyond great!.......1999-10-31

I've listened to lots of exotic guitar playing over the years but Yussi is the best. El Pirata surpassed what I thought was the greatest listening album of all time, Yussi & Djanjo's Bandidios de Amor

Excellent, Passionate, Yussi is my favorite!!.......1999-10-12

Yussi is the best! He's like a sweet devil when he plays his music. You must buy this CD. He has sole and alot of drive in his flamenco style. there's nobody else out there like him!!!

superior guitar work.......1999-07-08

They are the best. no doubt about it.......2001-03-05

Los Prisioneros have been my favorite group since the late eighties. Their "in your face" style of playing keeps you asking for more. Every song has a story of its own and a very deep social context. An excellent album and a must have.
