Trying to describe this famous piece of guitar music we’ve all heard but no one I’ve spoken to can name…

It’s the simple intro most of us Americans associate with a bullfight… here’s the basic rhythm of the intro.

strum. strum. strum.
strum-strum-strum. strum. strum.
strum-strum-strum. strum. strum.

And yeah I’m pretty sure most of you know what I’m talking about now. =) But… who wrote it? What’s it from? Anyone know?

No, it’s a specific piece… if there any guitar players out there, the chords are:

E. E. E.
E-E-F. F. F.
G-F-E. E. E.

Also known as the Spanish Gypsy Song (English translation). The song is also strongly associated with the Paso Doble, which is a dance styled after a bullfight in which the lead moves like a matador and the follow like his cape.

That’s also one of about 7 or 8 ballpark organ melodies that I’ve been trying most of my life to identify.
