Typically awesome stuff! and I love looking into the cover art — reminds me of the solid dashboard and interior of the old Impala I used to drive through that same part of the world; dig it!

"Spaghetti Westernish".....bullseye!

But I still like it. Saw them live a few years ago.  They're really good.  Impressive musicians and have a really really cool stage presence.  I have a hard time hating anything Calexico.

Victor Jara Manifiesto

This song of the musician Victor Jara, i dedicated to all members of Calexico, Joey Burns, John Convertino, Paul Niehaus, Jacob Valenzuela, Martin Wenk, Volker Zander, who had the presence of mind, inspiration, talent and daring, performing the great musical work, the album "Carried To Dust" and all the meaning that goes with it.
And if there are values that I preserve and respect in life is courage, authenticity and human sense of human beings who do not give up their values and feelings and not allow themselves to intimidate, subjugate and dispose of its human condition, sometimes putting at risk the most precious thing there is, life itself. These are the Elected.
It's out there, many "gentlemen", who think themselves lords and masters of the world,  that instrumentalize fear, insecurity, chaos theory, to refer people to your interests and try make the story backwards in reverse to developments and achievements in human history. The most precious thing there exist,  is the Human.  Each Person. Each citizen. Without the contribution of people, these "masters" are nothing.
You need to create wealth. It's true. But the wealth must be redistributed and reinvested to society, for the good of the whole community, and not concentrated in the hands of usurers. Each and every one citizen is the most important and it is this concern which must always be on the table that has the responsibility to represent them in an organized society. by calypsus_1

Yo no canto por cantar
ni por tener buena voz
canto porque la guitarra
tiene sentido y razon,
tiene corazon de tierra
y alas de palomita,
es como el agua bendita
santigua glorias y penas,
aqui se encajo mi canto
como dijera Violeta
guitarra trabajadora
con olor a primavera.

Que no es guitarra de ricos
ni cosa que se parezca
mi canto es de los andamios
para alcanzar las estrellas,
que el canto tiene sentido
cuando palpita en las venas
del que morira cantando
las verdades verdaderas,
no las lisonjas fugaces
ni las famas extranjeras
sino el canto de una alondra
hasta el fondo de la tierra.

Ahi donde llega todo
y donde todo comienza
canto que ha sido valiente
siempre sera cancion nueva.

Just gorgeous. I'm sure that Calexico must be close to the most-played band on RP, and there's no argument with that from me!

Calexico are probably my favourite RP discovery (which has been somewhat costly, since the back catalogue obviously needed purchasing...). Love this track especially {#Yes}

I was just thinking this morning about a trip to Puerto Vallarta during which I stepped into a cantina to waste a little time before meeting up with my wife and kids. On the stool next to me sat.......... a vision (!). I had to get out of their fast.
