Some of you may know GipsyKing for the spanish version of ?Hotel California?. However, they are largely well known for many of the songs that feature on their greatest hits. GipsyKing like Bob Marley, in my opinion, are in a league of their own and once people hear their song Bombeleo , they will realise that they have heard it before. Although I only speak a few words of spanish, I don?t beleive it is needed to appreciate the guitar mastery and the warm, acoustic tones and variety this album offers.
I remember initially listening to GipsyKing in the 90?s when I worked at a restaurant that provided food and music from around the world. I now have the CD and it often keeps me company on long journeys and the drive to work.

There's a very John Otway feel to the title of "I Knew Prufrock Before He Got Famous ...

I want this played at my wedding. A big church wedding, flowers everywhere, this playing in the background as we say our wedding vows... well, I'll end up getting married in a registar office now, but it's nice to dream! Yes, it is classical! There are lots of versions knocking about, but I like them all.
Love Tonight - Elton John>
Why am I even admitting this?! The Lion Kingsong! Okay, it makes me cry. And I like it. And it's ELTON JOHN! Ahem. It is a good song though, I do like it, but I don't listen to it a lot.
She's dead or something, isn't she? Wasn't she shot on stage about a decade ago, or was that someone else? This song is so sweet and lovely, I could listen to it all day and never get bored. She has/had an amazing voice and was/is extremely ...
