Kent Fox Posted 6 September 2007 Posted 6 September 2007 ...so I've put the catalogue on... Seeing as you have now un-ignored me ( ), have you listened to Manu' other stuff?? And if you have heard "La Radiolina", how does the other stuff compare? Before I go and illegally legally download it..
Daggers Posted 6 September 2007 Posted 6 September 2007 ...have you listened to Manu' other stuff??And if you have heard "La Radiolina", how does the other stuff compare? Before I go and illegally legally download it.. Manu Negra was a band he was in with his brother...it was "punk" - but that is 'punk' in the continental Europe sense. All of his solo stuff since is under his own name. I adore Esperanza and Clandestino - but they may be an acquired taste. They remind me of when I lived through mad days and long nights in a country of random mayhem and passion. Start with Clandestino and move on to the other one if it grabs you. It's all a bit similar - loops & samples fused with acoustic guitar and African/Latin rhythms. Up to four languages blending (Portuguese, Spanish, French and English) simple repetitions into some lovely songs. But different. I used to sing some of them to my Year 3 class with a guitar, ages ago, to teach them a bit of French and Spanish...hoping that none of their parents understood all of the words Give the Mano Negra a listen if you're feeling really daring.

Cheers, Daggers. Found a 'Best of' Mano Negra, and Clandestino. Looking forward to this :thumbsup:
