Sed libera nos a malo


 "Sed libera nos a malo" translates to "but deliver us from evil" and is a phrase from the Lord's Prayer in Latin. It expresses a plea for protection from harm or evil

The price of gas, which is subject to change for better or worse, is what this Latin phrase refers to   In this static montage you see the symbol for faith and the hard green numbers that were created by politics and all the unnecessary power plays of this country's administration  Yes, "Deliver us from evil" this year and all that follow

 Francisco Gustavo Sánchez Gómez, known as Paco de Lucía, was a Spanish virtuoso flamenco guitarist, composer, and record producer. A leading proponent of the new flamenco style, he was one of the first flamenco guitarists to branch into classical and jazz. Richard Chapman and Eric Clapton, authors of Guitar: Music, History, Players, describe de Lucía as a "titanic figure in the world of flamenco guitar", and Dennis Koster, author of Guitar Atlas, Flamenco, has referred to de Lucía as "one of history's greatest guitarists". De Lucía was noted for his fast and fluent picados. A master of contrast, he often juxtaposed picados and rasgueados with more sensitive playing and was known for adding abstract chords and scale tones to his compositions with jazz influences. These innovations played a key role in the development of traditional flamenco and the evolution of new flamenco and Latin jazz fusion from the 1970s. He received acclaim for his recordings with flamenco singer Camarón de la Isla in the 1970s, recording ten albums which are considered some of the most important and influential in flamenco history.
