RE: OT: CUSA board Music thread (what are you listening to right now?)
great stuff wwdog. i ended up buying the link wray song. what a set of huevos on that guy. can't believe i'd never heard him as i had very young parents and grew up on 50's music.
porcupine tree was very interesting as well. i wikied them and it was good stuff.
there's so much good/great music that's out there. no way to be aware of all of it. that's why i love this thread.

heard this on way home today: 'cuando los angeles lloran' (when the angels cry) by 'mana'
i've heard them called 'the eagles' of may-hee-coe. not necessarily in style but more in how huge their success has been. i love their music.
Quote: Mana has topped the all time lists in much of Latin America and in their native Mexico, where they set landmarks in record sales and concert attendances. [1][2] The band formed in 1986 and released its first album, Falta Amor, in 1990. In 1992, the group released ¿Dónde Jugarán Los Niños?, which sold more than 8 million copies worldwide, [citation needed] becoming the best selling Spanish-language rock album of all time. After several lineup changes, the group released Cuando los Ángeles Lloran (1995), which is noted for its stylistic departure from the band's previous work. Maná followed with Sueños Líquidos (1997), Revolución de Amor (2002), and Amar es Combatir (2007), which continued the group's success. The band's most recent album, Drama y Luz, was released in April 2011.
The band's sound draws from the pop rock, Latin pop, calypso, reggae and ska music genres. They initially received international commercial success in Australia and Spain and have since gained popularity and exposure in the US, Western Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. No other Latin rock act sells more albums or arenas with the consistency of Maná. The band has sold more than 25 million albums worldwide.
