Thanks to my friend Chuck for this great score!
For what seems like today only, pick up or download Radiolina, the new album from Manu Chao
My sister (soon to be known to readers everywhere as Shoestring's worldly, cheap-chic vacation columnist, Travel Pants), got me hooked on Manu Chao while she was living in Montevideo, Uruguay, a few years back. I could barely pronounce his name correctly, but quickly got hooked on Manu's modern blend of chill-out music with a cosmopolitan, jet-setting intellectual feel (Manu has a hybrid French and Spanish upbringing) and subdued political activism messages.
Apparently, that resonates with Americans right now, as it seems like he's starting to finally draw a following. Pants and I went to check out a new hipper-than-thou Boston boutique the other night, and guess who was on the loudspeakers?...that's right, Manu Chao.
Get your groove on and support the budget-friendly news you love from Shoestring and Bargainista by downloading Manu Chao now from Amazon.com
Modern / world music not your thing? Download Jay-Z's entire Life & Times of S. Carter, volume 3 for just $0.99!
I have to thank my friend Vijay for the tip! :-)
