Just downloaded it yesterday, have to buy the 'real' thing when in Mexico. :-)

I burned it to cd with some tracks of Calexico & TV on the Radio. I got the 'English' version of the album, which has 3 more tracks of English versions of Spanish counterparts on the album. So far my favs are: Ojo de Culebra (eye of the snake), Justicia, Los Pollos, I Envy The Wind/ Yo Envidio El Viento, Silent Thunder (with native american tribal ending chant), Taco de palabras (taco of words) - love the ending with that guy squeeking with a childlike voice: tortilla! :-)

Have to try to get tickets for one of the Paris-shows mid november. Will you be trying to catch a glimps of her live, Jill?

Mid-November? Ehh... if it's after Nov 17, i'd like it!
Mine has 16 tracks, with Yo Envidio/I Envy as the only one with two versions. Yo Envidio - it's incredible how poetic these lines of Lucinda Williams can sound in Spanish!! Taco de palabras - that's clever and sweet, I liked it too. Justicia - I got it, I even can relate :) Los Pollos, si-si-si, quiquiriquear es bonito :) And I was surprised that Perro Negro has almost a Balkan sound!

Does Shake Way not sound a lot like Ojo de Culebra on your album?

Nothing But The Truth is quite different to Justicia but i think one sparked of the other.

Lila is in France from 18th onwards... you're in luck!

yeah, that Balkan sound is now a populair thing here in the west, i expect the next SPARKS album will have those influences on it too :-P
