cajon


It's still dark, rainy and dreary here - leftovers from the most recent tropical storm. I'd thought about posting something "northern," but changed my mind in favor of another Latin American cut.

I could talk a lot about the music - the lead singer is Chabuca Granda, and she's performing in an Afro-Peruvian style, with members of Peru Negro. But I'd rather imagine myself lying on the sofa on South Tenth Street, being caught by surprise as this showed up on my downstairs neighbors' turntable... (The song is called Fina Estampa, and it's from Chabuca Granda's album, Cada Canción Con Su Razon.)
