Let’s all pause to celebrate the birthday of Maria Rosario Pilar Martinez Molina Baeza – better known as Spanish American flamenco guitarist, actress, singer, comedian, Las Vegas headliner, perennial “special guest star” on 1970s TV shows like The Brady Bunch Variety Hour, Donny & Marie, Love Boat and Fantasy Island, beloved kitsch icon and “Cuchi Cuchi Girl” Charo! Bear in mind the actual birth date of the birthday girl is shrouded in mystery. Charo’s Wikipedia page devotes an entire section to “Birth year controversy.�� (Her Spanish birth certificate and passport state 13 March 1941, but weirdly her preferred “show biz birthday” is 15 January 1951 – so in theory we can celebrate Charo’s birthday twice a year!). Anyway, if you don’t follow her on Instagram already do yourself a favour - the woman is a joyous ray of sunshine! “Cuchi cuchi!” Pictured: pinup of Charo by Steve Schapiro, 1976.

Daily Instrument — Flamenco Guitar

The flamenco guitar is a Spanish fretted string instrument. It has 6 strings, held flat against the player's torso, plucked with each finger on the right hand, while fretted with the left. The style flamenco guitar players use to pluck is called toque. The flamenco guitar is similar to the classical guitar. The key differences between the two are the flamenco guitar’s lower action, thinner neck and thinner body. Flamenco guitars are made with the idea of fast and easy playing in mind, while the classical guitar is made around the idea of clearer tone.
