I would like to say thanks to everyone who has listened to my tunes and I have been heartened and inspired by all of the comments that have been left. Sadly I have lost touch with Ricardo Castillo the vocalist who sang so well for me.Since I moved to Spain four years ago I have been influenced by flamenco, and I have written a few more songs that I will be recording and posting soon. However, this time I will be singing them myself and I will be very interested in your comments on that. I am a bit self concious as it will be the first time I have sang. I would never have dreamt of singing in English as I found my strong Manc accent a bit embarrasing, but in Spanish it sounds half good. And some Spanish singers have told me ¨que suena bien¨ (it sounds fine).
Once again thanks to eveyone, you are wonderfull people and it is a fabulous website.
These songs were written and recorded in Manchester U.K. during 2002 / 3. All the music and lyrics were written by myself.
I hope you enjoy them.
Peace, Garcito

Perla Negra is not a band as such, rather a recording/ writing project. The songs are about places that I have visited around the world like Cuba, Mexico, Dominican republic etc. and also where I now live in Rural Andalucia.
´ta luego ya. |
