not sure what's worse, the cheesy beat, the schmaltzy piano segue, or the lowest-common-denominator melody/harmony.




YOUR comment is worse!  Learn how to use the "skip button" & spare us from your drivel!

We retired to the Pacific coast of Mexico almost 3 years ago.
It's nice to hear some Willie and Lobo.

I kept waiting for this song to morph into the Eagle's live Hotel California.  Then it just got boring.
 

Would have been boring either way.  Actually I vastly prefer this.
They played this on their penultimate farewell tour. Liking it still.

"My mama said to get things done, you'd better not mess with Major Tom" to a salsa beat. ;-)

Yup, we made a special trip down there to see them at a special New Year's Eve performance they do every year on a restaurant patio. That's after we first saw them at the Palms Playhouse in Winters, CA. They're wonderful musicians and a great couple of guys.

By the way, their entire catalog is excellent.

Cinco de Mayo is on a Tuesday. Ouch.

Just saw Wille & the Wolf down in Puerto Vallarta. The music sceen is growing down there. I've been going regularly for 20 years. If you get the chance to go - do it.

Having just watched The Big Lebowski I thought this was going to be a version of "Hotel California".
Nice elevator music.
Not a huge fan of the synthesized backup. Ho Hum.

Had not heard of Willie & Lobo before. Another reason why I love RP ! W & L are now on my (ever-growing)list of CD's to check out. pbm 8^)
Agreed. Problem is the amount of money it is going to require to purchase every CD on my list because of this place :)

Seconded
The opening made me think of the Gypsy King's cover of 'Hotel California.' (haven't checked, is that uploaded?) Cool tune, I like.

Crap or not crap....hmmmm...It\'s got htat \"world music\" (wtf?) feel, which is kinda cool I guess, but at the same time, its a little predictable in that \"world music\" sense. Not sure if I like it. Have to listen to it a few more times. I guess that means it\'s not that bad. There again, I live in Miami, so I hear latin style stuff all the time. Literally. And how do you people drink in the heat?!?!

The violinist sounds alot like Jean-Luc Ponty. Any connection?

Hell, even the stuff I don't like "belongs" here. That's what makes RP such a cool place to hang.
Very nice... Not as good as \"Tribute To Manolo\" though. That one is VERY special.
Nice and soothing...Perfect! :D
Lovely south-of-the-border flavor, but with lots more variety inside the song than I would ever expect. Putting this on my \"to buy\" list. :p
me gusto mucho!

I agree. Unless you like listening to the same 5 tunes over and over, RP has the best variety of the best music around. And unless you are listening to RP 24-7 (I don't have time to), there aren't that many repeats. And there is always something that I've heard nowhere else.
