cd cover Pancho Alvarez
Florencio, O Cego Dos Villares (Boa / Do Fol)

The 1998 recording, by the founder of Na Lua and current member of the Carlos Núñez Band, is an all-acoustic affair dedicated to the music of Florencio, a blind fiddler and singer born in 1914, who travelled around the musical fairs of Galicia and Asturia in the mid-20th century. Multi-instrumentalist Alvarez recreates the music of the old singer with a nod to past and present, playing 10 instruments including fiddle, bouzouki, concertina and percussion

Most CDs have been imported from Europe or Asia. They are not all shrink-wrapped, and I am not going to con you by wrapping them here just to make you think they have been sterilized in America. We guarantee that the CDs and the contents are all brand new and in perfect condition. Whenever I can, I use recycled shipping materials. They may not look as pretty on the outside, but they save money and keep the trash dumps a little bit emptier.
