From 1968 comes this collection of light, bright Paraguayan folk music. Wonderful harp playing, emotive vocals, strong guitars. Performed by Los Chiriguanos: two men (vocalist/guitarist)(harpist). Every track is worth playing. 1. Mid-tempo & happy w/wonderful strings. 2. Slow & dramatic w/an almost Asian spareness. 3. A happy, happy folk dance. 4. Mid-tempo Christmas song /dance. 5. Cool spoken word intro & vocals throughout. 6. A catchy, mid-tempo dance w/nice vocals. 7. Wonderful harp playing, with guitar keeping up nicely. 8. Up-tempo folk song of love. 9. Great harp/guitar duet. Bright & lively. 10. Sung in Guarani, a happy song of love. 11. Rich vocals mid-tempo song of the lonesome cowboy. 12. Soaring vocals, guitars. A mid-tempo folk dance. 13. Wonderful harp/guitar duet. Great interplay. 11/2003 | ||
