... To download the MP3s click the Files link in the menu and then just right click on the mp3 to save it. I had to make them 96 kbps so they would fit. Yahoo...
OK. I know I'm not the only timba geek, non-Spanish speaker who tries to write out as many song lyrics as possible based on previous song lyrics and phonetics....
Well, I'm uploading the complete CD to you right now Kevin. By the way, the 20MB of storage space we get, is that all we have or do each member have 20MB,...
Hej Magnus, Unfortunately 20MB is it for the whole group. But since I now know that Kevin is getting all the files, I will delete these and put up Soy Cubano...
Haha... I told you to study all the articles over at rec.music.afro- latin, didn't I? Search for "michel maza motorcycle" in google groups, and you'll find a...

... there ... thin ... How come Sweden gets all these bands? We rarely seem to get them in the UK. Is there some website of what's on in Sweden for the future?...
Just in case you were wondering why I'm posting at the peculiar time of 2 am, the reason is that I haven't come back down to normal after teaching a rueda...
Fellow geeks: I've sent the timba_geeks information to a very select list of Grade A timba addicts on several continents. All are known to be very well-spoken...

A rueda high! Sounds like a really fun evening. It's great that there is a succesful salsa evening going on. It seems to be fairly difficult to get the right...
... Thanks for the help Kevin. I would love to hear from people everywhere about what they think of all the groups/music/dancing. I find it facinating to hear...
OK. I posted a low quality SCSP mp3 in caes there is someone out there who wants to help but for some unfathomable reason has not yet bought the CD (do it...

OK. I've been working hard on my transcriptions and have now uploaded 6 word documents under Files rather than doing a bunch of posts. My system is to put...
Just joined and just got back from Cuba today...I'll post a detailed report once I catch my breath and re-adjust. P.S. Soy Cubano, Soy Popular is now the theme...

The lyrics to Soy Cubano Soy Popular and Timba Con Moña should now be pretty much accurate. There's still one line in Timba Con Moña that we haven't figured...
