Manolo’s Gift Music II
Manolo says, here are four more recommendation from the music files of the Manolo, perfect for giving to those you love.
Tanto Tempo
The Babel, she has such the lovely voice, and the rhythms they are so smooth and warm, like the pieces of polished tropical wood. It is in the humble opinion of the Manolo the perfect Bossa Nova, something that would allow you to sit back, close your eyes, and pretend that you are elsewhere.
Continental Drifter
Every since he first heard the Stand Back, many of the years ago, the Manolo he has been the devotee of the Charlie Musselwhite, the powerful bluesman and blower of the harp from the Chicago. So, you can imagine the joy of the Manolo when he heard that the Charlie he had recorded the album with the Eliades Ochoa and his band, Cuarteto Patria. The Manolo he loves this record so much that he has had to buy the second copy, so that he is never far from it. Sabroso!

This it is just the Dwight Yoakam, the acoustic guitar, and his masterful songbook. It is really how this music it was meant to be heard. Quiet, and yet it is also intensely personal and powerful.
19 Dias Y 500 Noches
If you not heard the odd, harsh, gravelly, eccentrically beautiful, chain-smoker’s voice of the Joaquin Sabina, you have not heard one of the treasures of the Spanish pop music. If you have not listened to the funny, rude, ridiculous, sublime lyrics of the songs of the Jaoquin Sabina you have not encountered one of the treasures of the modern Spanish poetry.

That Dwight Yoakam cd is super-fantastic. It’s been one of my absolute favorites for years.

Ay, Manolo!
La Cabrita she was listening to the Joaquin Sabina in the 1986 when she was living in Sevilla! Que maravilloso es el Joaquin!
And Dwight Yoakum is a marvel.

Hello to the Mya! Your English it is better than that of the Manolo!

The Manolo, you are the most super-fantastic blogger the Andres has ever encountered in his travels. The Andres loves the Sabina and the Bebel but in the Great Britain, where the Andres dwells, there are not many people that ever heard of them (that may explain why the Andres is frequently spotted on the shores of England looking pensively into the horizon in the direction of the America, –with its sizable Latino community–, longing for some cultural company).
The wife of the Andres reports to be very impressed with the shoes of the Manolo and announces she’ll be taking advice from no-one else from now on. The Andres congratulates the great blogger the Manolo on his super fantastic blog and wishes him every success!

Another vote for the Spanish music: listen to Llhasa. A voice that is rich, sensual, powerful. Music to woo by.
