BEAUTIFUL! I have some of his stuff. Andalucia (sometimes Andalusia) often covered by Exotica orchestras. Lovely!
ReplyDeleteOh wow!! We had this vinyl recording. Unfortunately it got broken in one of our many house moves. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful artist.
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Babs.
I am writing to ask you about one case. I love a movie 'Blood and sand' but I have a little problem and I am so glad that I found your account. I am 70 years old and I really like songs from this film. I mean soundtrack. But the most I like one song: serenade under the window. It is sang by 3 men.
ReplyDeleteAnd I have no idea who they are. What are they names and surnames. I think, I am sure that you can know this guys. It is very important to me. My life wouldn't be so long, but I must know it. So pleeease, can you help me to recognise them? And one more case. They are singing beautiful, but I don't know it is their real voices. Maybe it is only fake, and they are only actors. Maybe somebody else is singing.
Thank you very much. You are my last hope!
Looking forward to your answer.
