| | Flamenco-world.com - Tomatito and his gipsy guitar |
 | | Niño Miguel and Antonio Fernandez "El Tomate", both professional guitarists, are the sons of Miguel "El Tomate", but the brightest star in the family firmament is Fernandez Torres "Tomatito", born in Almería in 1958, one of the best-known performers of the "toque gitano" today. |
 | | It is a striking instance of the mutual exchange between the master musician who drank in flamenco with his mother's milk, and the disciple who, as guardian of the temple, restores the music to its gypsy origins. |
 | | For despite his current predilection for solo guitar work, Tomatito has not bid farewell to his other, "tocaor" half, and continues to work on stage and in the recording studio with the successors of Camarón, such as Remedios Amaya, El Duquenque, El Potito, El Cigala and Montse Cortés. |
