Brand new for 2003 - Mercedes Peón's Ajru

cd cover Mercedes Peón
Isué
Resistencia, Spain
$17.99

I think this is one of the most impressive and artistic recordings to come out of the Spanish folk music scene in years. Galician singer and music Peon is a wonder, with a powerful voice, a strong sense of historical roots and a wild and adventurous spirit. This recording is an absolue must for anyone who loves contemporary folk-ways. Beautifully packaged, with lyrics in Galician, Spanish and English. - CF

"....in the best folk rock tradition, always in her unique and determined way, and with a sense of production that never cuts into the energy to be trendy or cute. Peon's music is often rough-hewn and raw, never clever or contrived, and always distinctive." - RootsWorld

Please note!
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.
