Morante -> Favourite music (Jul. 5 2016 14:23:30)
Normally we eat on the terraza with a fresh fish and a fine wine, listening to music. Although mi niña es española, I have recently brought my original LPs from Irlanda and we listen to Lou Reed, Albert King, Lee Dorsey, Maria Muldaur etc. I have dozens of flamenco CDs but only listen to cante en directo. (Anybody want to buy the complete works of Camarón, complete with explanatory booklet and letras?) Do other people listen to music while they eat and what do they listen to?[:D]

Music and eating is hand and hand for us! I built a little waterfall and fish pond right outside our dining room so we eat, have good California wine, watch the fish and listen to music we both can agree upon. Usually cante, fados, old Jazz & Blues or swing and sometimes bluegrass, maybe classical here and there.

At the moment the lunch hour sound waves here are occupied by insects. Cicada season, with a vengeance.

We eat all our meals in the dining room, which overlooks the pool and the sloping back yard (garden), with a view five miles or so to the west. Sunsets are nice. Musical tastes are eclectic: "Classical" choral, orchestral and instrumental over its seven-hundred year history; Balinese and Javanese gamelan; Mexican ballads and trio romántico; salsa and mambo; jazz from New Orleans to Sun Ra; Indian classical music, both Bengali and Karnatic.... Flamenco, mostly cante, is more for later in the evening, by candle light with a glass of manzanilla or cognac. RNJ

Hahaha, that's my dinner when the lady is not with me! [:D]

quote: You have cicadas in Madrid?? Yup. And they're out in droves. At first I thought it was my tinnitus acting up [&:] Though it's no worse then the monk parakeets we have here who aren't always all that pleasant to the ear. They've built a nest in the tree just out front, though at this point it's a colony. Actually, I've started calling it the death star.

Both of these behaviors are well rehearsed survival strategies. There's something about kitchens that brings out the mad scientist in me. And something about the price of any half decent bottle that makes her immediately think the money could be better spent on travel tickets to see distant family. Tonight I opened a bottle of ever so slightly corked white porto that she'd bought - it has a kind of explosive after effect, a bit like sherbert. I then chopped up some fresh papaya leaves which people have been urging me to start using to fight off zika fever. The chopped leaves were spread out in a clay dish, chicken legs arranged above them. Add a layer of garlic, some herbs. A splash of the corked port (got to finish it somehow). Wrapped the pot in foil, and in the oven. What could go wrong? Well the result was bloody awful. Chicken cooked with papaya leaves - it somehow miraculously gives the meat an acrid bitterness that would have you believe the meat was rancid. [:'(] Luckily the cats will eat anything, and for us at least the evening was saved by some good vibes from this blast from the past. Not my favourite band, but this video catches them in top form and some of these tunes are just plain infectious. [8D][8D] https://www.facebook.com/joe.graves.161/videos/1092936144091316/

Man you guys have too much class. As soon as I wake up I grab my phone and start listening to Bulerias most of the morning while getting ready for the day. Although now I might start listening to Bolt Thrower to get me out of bed. The cicadas around here are all gone. Too much urban development. But when I was a kid it was like a biblical plague.

Buleria for breakfast - so healthy [;)] Anyone else here like New Model Army?
