You Got A Better Version!?


If you check back in the posts since I started keeping this blog relatively updated (*cough*), I mentioned a film Santa Sangre in a previous post (go ahead, check it out).  Well the soundtrack has an interesting and varied selection of tracks; below being my choice tune. 

Damazo PĂ©rez Prado - Caballo Negro
*This is a 128kbps -- if you've got a higher quality version let me know, cuz i'd really like to chop it up.
*Note: Prado is the Cuban musician who also composed the original Mambo #5.
If you want to remember how great Louie Bega's version was, go right ahead.



For me, I'm all about the flair of the OG.  They're stylin on ya w/ those pure yak-hair sleeves!



Also I'm watching Lucky Number Slevin right now -- and a choice choice choice tune just came on, and I can't resist posting it.  It just oozes emotion.

*For the Wu-Tang fans out there, this was sampled on Tearz, which if memory serves, was the first Wu track recorded/released.
