Unfortunately, many online media sources are not allowing us to access their services from Mexico. Like rhapsody.com, NBC...
Apple iTunes still works; yesterday I downloaded the rest of a Mariachi Reynas de Los Angeles, an LA based all female mariachi band I like. A few
other Spanish tunes I frequently play on my iPod include Los Tigres del Norte (favorite song: "Jose Perez Leon"), Lila Downs ("Soy Pescador"), and,
curiously, ABBA in Spanish.
Paula has a ton of Spanish music.
What are the most popular USA tunes in Baja, among the Mexican people? In LOreto I hear:
Hotel California
My Way
Seasons in the Sun (arrrgh!)

As an American, I am happy to point out that Seasons in the Sun is actually of Canadian origin.

Strunz and Farrah Primal Magic 24/7.
But not by choice, it's kinda burned into my brain.
Thanks Randy, I owe you one.

Paula--I saw Mana live three times this year--once in San Diego and two nights in a row in Oakland. They are one of the best live acts in any kind of
music. Great staging, effects, performance, musicianship, and above all, great songs. |
 Mana?
Los Lonely Boys? Mana?Los Lonely Boys

Are you using Mexican DSL which tags you as "foreign" somehow?
Is there any other online activity that's blocked for you- banking, online shopping (heaven forbid)?
Can you guys listen to the online sites I posted above?

Kingston Trio, Ike and Tina Turner, Harry Belafonte, Johnny Rivers, Elvis, Three Dog Night, Eagles and Coasters ---just to name a few. I can see
where the generation gap really shows up in the music we like. Rap music sucks. Country rules as does rock n roll.

Websites identify the Internet Service Provider (ISP) that you use to reach them. They can also identify the type of computer and the web browser that
you use.
Copyright laws require agreements to be made before "intellectual property" can be sold on a country-by-country basis. So now some sites identify the
location of your ISP, and if it's in a coountry where the proper red tape hasn't been accomplished, you get a "Sorry" message. Pandora is another site
I can't use.
Paula did get the music you linked to, thanks!

When it comes down to it, I like country, rock and roll, jazz, show tunes, classical, soul, new age, alternative, African, Calypso, ska, various folk
(American, Greek, Latvian), the various Mexican (ranchero, cumbia, banda), reggae, punk, heavy metal, Indian, drinking songs, bluegrass, pretty much
anything - but rap.
I forgot blues.

Have you heard this? It's not a new album but the Andean/South american style is timeless isn't it? Sample a few and see what you think.
