About Naco Goni & Malcolm Scarpa
The many fans of this duo are in luck with this build not to use the light given Gaztelupeko Hotsak Basque record label. Indeed, "1980 - 2000" includes the nearly 20 years of musical collaboration between these two talents parallel Madrid who have been working on other musical fronts, especially Scarpa. Half of the subjects of the collection belonging to "Doin 'our Kind" (Cambayá, 1991), "Berriz Blues Sessions" (Gaztelupeko Hotsak 1997) and the self-titled album Ñaco Goñi (Gaztelupeko Hotsak, 1996). While compilations often subjective in the choice of subjects, in this case we can say that has been most successful, although one would have more room for the subjects themselves, as in the case of "Love with a feelin '" Scarpa, not included. But there are "Me and my buddy" with the freshness of a first recording, the yodel of "Long Gone Lonesome Blues" by Hank Williams, or delta sound "Rattlesnakin 'Daddy" by Blind Boy Fuller. But This brilliant set of issues there are the live recordings taken from here and there, that will undoubtedly surprise you. For starters are the versions of "Honest I Do" and "Crawling King Snake" in log home with single cassette, which show the duo in the throes of learning (are meaningful titles) and inspired a special tenderness, with that Malcolm loudly singing the lyrics. The charm of the stuttering steps are musical prowess counterpose "The Jitter Jive," a live ragtime alternating Scarpa blues sounds, tongue clicks, percussive guitar pickguard or the waltz. Or "Blowing the blues" another ragtime in which Goñi Ñaco ebullient swing shows. "Hot Nuts" is in line vaudeville song with lyrics so beloved mischievous Scarpa, while in "Black Snake Moan", a very old issue of the 20s by Blind Lemon Jefferson are both musicians with the fondness for archaic blues. This average live music Alarm time well have been worth an entire disk, which, again, fans of the duo will be able to appreciate. In conclusion, we say that "1980-2000" stands as one of the best blues albums appeared in the State in many years. ~ Eduardo De Mujika
