mexican marimbas...

here, two tracks from a 78 set i also picked up sunday, the music, performed by "marimba pan-americana" is unfortunately not as raw as the photo on the cover would lead one to believe. it is unfortunate that those beautiful drums cannot be heard... nonetheless here are the two best sides, the upbeat "tu ya no soplas", which is a tune from the film "ora ponciano" and one with a bit of a melancholy feel called "mayita"...
