...is Los ejes de mi carreta, a milonga composed by the Argentine Atahualpa Yupanqui (1908—1992) on the lyrics by the Uruguayan Romildo Risso (1882—1946). I hope you like this recent version by the Cuban Septeto Santiaguero.

La cumparsita, composed by Uruguayan musician Gerardo Hernán Matos Rodriguez, is probably the most famous tango of all times. This week, I would like to introduce rather unusual version of this song, as played by the British outfit Tango Siempre (appears on their 2007 album Tangents). Tango Siempre plays on 25 October 2008 at Junction, Cambridge. Hope to see you there.
