Great, you are the winner, Jim! Congratulations!
Yeah, the songs aren't bad (once you get used to them). Although I would have liked to hear genuine '50's recordings, but I guess they didn't exist then! Pretty obvious to me, some were mastered from LPs, so I guess this is reissue, per se'. I find a LOT of this (foreign language) stuff in the budget CD rack. Sadly, the large WALL OF CDs collection has been downsized to a small rack :-(

It's certainly a clever way to market music (in a variety of languages); thought of the idea myself. However, probably not a large enough market. Hard enough to sell what English songs that exists! Probably what songs were recorded in Spanish, by original artists, didn't thrill too many.

Tiny Tim? Ha!

Thanks!

Best,
John
