Cateracts Smoking Weed

MEME: 3 tracks and that ...

over one month ago, Carmen, from its beautiful literary blog, The Human Condition, I chose to continue a "meme music." I've never heard of this before, first of all I thought that made me an indecent proposal with background music, but then I understood that was not (then I got dressed.)
Since I am so hung as achiever, this post is to continue with the aforementioned "meme", late but safe. COMPIC
I have the task of choosing 3 songs and explain the reason for that choice ...

1. Los Fabulosos Cadillacs - "Blue Jacket"



LA band The Cadillacs are central to my life. When I was 13 years, we bought our first house "compactera" at that time, CDs were the new. Aproxcimaba knowing that this event had saved some money, and no sooner had the equipment, rushed to buy CDs. I made 3 "Pampas Reggae Los Pericos, and two of Fabulous: The ultra popular" Empty Glasses "and then just left" King Sugar ", which includes just Saco Azul.
could be said that at that moment I became involved with music forever. Thanks to LFC known a lot of music, rock in general (from that time, The band began to consider seriously, not just for the holidays), thousands of ska bands (from the historic Madness or The Specials, to some newer, like Save Ferris and Reel Big Fish), and countless bands with Latin sounds (King Chango, Radiohead, etc.).
And this particular issue, which is not exactly the most representative of the Cadillacs, for me is always going to be among the best sounds of history.

2. Puya - "Siguelo Pa 'lla"




These Puerto Ricans mean a lot to me. Not only for what I like their music, the mix of salsa and metal as well have done, but because this particular song was leitmotiv of the radio show I did many years with my friend JP, and so many joys and sorrows gave: Good Losers.
We made this band sound unknown in our country, the awards Martin Fierro (although the "delivery" was for others, we do not give anything)

3. Almafuerte - Triunfo


Almafuerte
With the best band in English Heavy in my opinion (yes, I know, everything is debatable), I met "the other side of the rock"), the party hard, metal, hard rock, "heavy" ...
One group managed to raise a character as historic and unique (although one does not share most of their ideas) and Ricardo Iorio and the best guitar player in the world ...

BONUS TRACKS (seriously thought I was going to pick just 3?)

King Chango - "Without You"



King Chango, among many Latino bands sound is one of my bands favorites. Despite having published only two albums, left an incredible mark in this kind of music.
addition, I felt that it lacked a ballad ...

Natalia y La Forquetina - "Land"


I have my side "pop", it could have represantado with Banasonicos or bands like Kinky (which I love), which resemble a "rock band" and so portegeria me a bit more if you doubt my sexuality through this. But no, I choose this topic for the simple fact that it's great theme.

supposed I have to pass the baton and say who want to continue with this meme, but the truth, I do not pressure anyone, so if anyone is reading this and wants to do, great! ... and warn that wave ...


PS: I just noticed that none of the issues that has elected official video ... that makes me a "border" or something?
