themangotree While I am generally more of a fan of the African rather than the Latin AA releases this is an exception. No sense that some of the tracks were there to fill out an album when the supply of gems has run out. You won't be skipping anything here. A few variations on the 'Guajira' theme are included and a sound to western ears that's more rooted in the early 1960s than 1970s and all the better for it. Highly recommended.

The Tonearm "I wouldn’t be happy being the kind of artist whose only responsibility is to dream and record. I like to write the poems, sew the paper for the books, and then sell them myself. I believe that by doing so, art stays connected to life and can connect more deeply with people."
