Last.fm is a very cool internet radio. First, you do not have to register to listen to it. Second, if you do, it will track what kind of music you are listening to and will create personalised "radio station" for you. Third, you can share your tastes with your friends. (Well I am trying to do this last part with our blog anyway.) This week's song is A Dios Le Pido by the Colombian superstar Juanes.

I have never been a big fan of Gloria Estefan, but after listening to No Llores I am about to become... well at least the fan of her latest (all-Spanish) album, 90 Millas. (Yes it is Carlos Santana playing.) I hope you enjoy this music.

...starts tomorrow at Sadler's Wells and features stars of this blog such as Miguel Poveda and Concha Buika. Don't miss them live!

As usual, I was looking (without success) for something unrelated on the web when I came across the website of Seattle-based sax player Layla Angulo. Her band is cookin'! This week's song is La Noche del Tambor from Layla's album Live at The Triple Door.
