				   quote:
  Santiago Donday ("Morrongo," with Paco Cepero accompanying)       This CD aways amuses me. Santiago used to have café in the Plaza de la Catedral and everytime I passed, he woud ask me when I was going to record him. But he wanted 2 million pesetas upfront and the whole recording paid. Furthermore, I knew him very well and knew that I could not control him in the studio, especially since he was way past his best.      Eventually Enrique Montiel, a prepotente periodista, found some public money and called Cepero, one of the few with sufficient clout to work with Santiago.      Listen closely to the recording: it is mostly cut and paste. This is a tour de force de Paco Cepero.      This is not to denigrate Santiago, but it is a pity he was not recorded in his prime. There is an old BBC documentary where he sings a little por bulerías and demonstrates why he was so great.
