I couldn't leave this one alone ...I LOOOVE "Oye Como Va" by Santana.

If you love that song too, you gotta try the Tito Puente live version on the album "Mambo Birdland"....I tink you liiike it...it's fun.

I will totally check that out.
Carlos is one of my all time faves (and I LOVE Puente too--he's an institution here in NY!

This was our wedding song. One of my all time favorites.

I just wanted to say that I went through all of these songs on itunes the other night and bought a bunch of new songs, so thanks! Especially to whoever recommended the Decemberists. I'd never heard them before, and I love them!

I like having the link to itunes up at the top too. I can never find the amazon.com forum link. I know it's on here somewhere, but I can never find it (well, now I can go through the mp3 store link).

Oh! Another group that Sydney (ScubaGirl) and her hubby introduced me to was Great Big Sea-- they called it Canadian Maritime music (at least I think that's what she called it).

It's sort of a mix of Irish/folk/I don't know how else to describe it but it's generally happy fun stuff.

I included The Decemberists. I love "Sons & Daughters" in particular. They're quite wonderful to see live. They'll be at the Newport Folk Festival this summer.

Since you enjoyed them, you might give these a listen:

Fake Empire---The National
I Can Hear Your Voice---The Accidental
Cage the Songbird--The Low Anthem

Oohh ohhh oooh!! I was watching True Romance last night and I LOVE the song from the end of that movie.... GREAT instrumental with a tropical vibe... when you hear it you'll recognize it:

"You're So Cool" by Hans Zimmer

But the best version is the one by Dan Head on the Essential Hans Zimmer Soundtrack. It's also the more popular one on iTunes.

Carry on....

I had quite a collection ready for our trip in February and as we took off and flew over the airport parking lot, I realized that all my music that I had spent hours upon hours downloading and arranging was sitting in the floor of the car.

But here's one for your collection.....

No Hay Problemo - Pink Martini

So....planning another trip so I can go back and listen to my music!
