Just found some music on line that’s new to me, and sounds great.
Defo worth further exploring.
Called Sons of Legion.
Really nice👍
Come over all Spanish so Barcelona’s Ojos de Brujo and their 2006 debut Techari on CD. Neuvo Flamenco yes but so so much more!
Oohhh yes! Starting the weekend early!
I think they’ve been going longer than that. An ex of mine , from Barcelona, made me a copy of Vengue, on cassette back in 1999. They were rather good.

Streaming on Qobuz (44.1/16)… kciking off this morning’s musical session with a bowl of bananas, blueberries, cherries, strawberries and yogurt while enjoying the journey back to 1993 with Sting’s ‘Ten Summoner’s Tales’ and he and the band are sounding sublime!
Game changer for them with Magic Johnson and a top version of Higher Ground. ![]()
Maybe this question needs its own thread but what dictates whether you click “like” on something here? Do people click on classic albums EVERY time they appear? I tend to pass over the regulars (Dark Side, CTTE, Beatles, etc) in favor of lesser known albums.
Thx Tony - wasn’t aware of the earlier album plus now find that Bari that I believed to be the sophomore effort was released in 2002. Anyway we definitely saw them at the Barbican in 2006 - absolutely exhilarating.

Diversions volume 2 is also excellent Tony c/w up north brass band . But of course you probably knew that. ![]()
