I remember watching her on Johnny Carson in the 70's. She was married to Xaviver Cugat back then. The Coochie-Coochie girl. She was a riot. Still amazing and beautiful. I had forgotten how fantastic she was on the guitar.

Holy crap this lady can shred. Still killing it world class style.

I have never understood a word she says…but what I have always known since I first saw her in the ‘70’s is what an incredible musician she is. What freakin’ talent and passion!

On a side note, why the fuck are all these people talking during her performance? How rude!

Charo being a female, is still one of the world's greatest guitar players of all time.

Absolutely amazing flamenco player! And I agree why the hell are all those people talking during such a great performance. They have no clue is all I can say. At 70+ she’s still just as good… what a talent!

I remember watching her play back flamenco in the early 1960s. She was introduced as just 17 years old. I was probably 12 or 13 at the time. I later learned that her date of birth was 1952. How could she be that much younger than I? Over the years, I've heard her dates of birth as in 1940, 1942, 1946, and 1952. I don't know if Charo herself knows for sure. Whatever. The lady is a prodigy!

Born January 15, 1951, at 73 she still is going strong, love her, a phenomenal woman

Or 83, depending on which one you believe. She legally somehow got a judge to ok a change to her date of birth back in the 70s, if I remember right.

In her 70s and still looking as gorgeous as ever.

Can you not see joy, passion, talent, she is phenomenal, forever, Charo! Chochi, chochi, love her, she is a leader, fearless, that is a true example of courage

Wow I’m 58 now and I remember watching her on tv..she’s so beautiful and talented 😮 glad to see her still playing and sharing her incredible talent 🙌🏼🎸

Is she really in her 70s though? She always seems timeless to me.

Just saw Charo in concert for the first time, last night in Las Vegas at the South Pointe Casino. She blew me away! She is so fantastic, as a singer, guitar player, and all around entertainer. Her energy is unbelievable! She is 73 years old. I am 56 and could no begin to keep up with her. Of all her talents, her guitar playing is what is most impressive. She could play with anyone in the world. She puts on a spectacular show. I have seen a lot of shows and this ranks as one of the absolute best. If you have never seen Charo in person and get a chance, take it. She is amazing!

A lot of non-flamenco players have no idea what an incredible guitar player she is. She is extremely talented and also puts on a great show

Saw her in concert at the Mohegan when I went back to CT, she is incredible at 74 years old, passion, fire, she is the epitome of her status as a world-renowned flamingo guitarist, not only passionate, but presence on stage radiates to each person because she is extending love

She was, what, 71 here? Still looks and sounds great, and still plays a mean guitar.

Good Talent ,just does not age, thanks CHARO❤ Dobie Wan Kanobie ❤ God Bless.

I remember seeing her on episodes of The Love Boat.

It's sad she's only known in the 1970's on game shows, guest shots on TV. When she's actually a damn good guitarist.

@suzieredfoxfur6982 I think she chose to affect that ditzy "gucci-gucci girl" persona because she knew where the money was. No doubt it was frustrating a lot of the time to have to play a character who was basically an ongoing joke, but she was able to laugh all the way to the bank and be her "real self" for those who knew, when the time was right.

If only André Segovia had lived long enough to see her now. An extremely beautiful woman, whose fingers work like magic!

I’ve played violin and guitar for 23 years… really, the calluses only form for about the first six months, when you begin playing, as your skin gets accustomed to the pressure of a thin, sharp string being pushed into it. Lol. But if you’re like me and play everyday, or at least 5-6 days a week, there are no more calluses after a few months.
