BACKGROUND
These are tracks I've listened to a lot. I was looking for tracks with some melancholy and some humour, and in the end there wasn't much melancholy and three tracks which I think go well together. Maryo: I just like the slow, flamenco-like vocal opening, and then the way they launch into the song. / Parno Graszt: an absolute winner from the first moments of the first mp3 sample I heard. / The memorable voice of Romica Puceanu, heard on the bbc before. Deserves to be heard again.
