March 08

I've been RECORDING recording RECOrding for the past couple weeks, getting some music together for my demo cd. I'll have some advance copies when I come home.

love,
tien

Heard this gem at work today

Was trimming today and this came on the "radio". It's cumbia, but it might be fun to play it as a forro... Colombians have porro, Brazilians have forro.  Wonder what the history is?
