We're still smiling.

Si se mantienen la escritura y el canto, te mantenga escucha!

The history of music melting pots is always fascinating -- thanks for the background.

Those first two lines set it up -- nobody could lose interest after that.

And man, the vocal is standout. You effortlessly move amongst genres...always maintaining your signature sound but working so well in disparate styles.

A wonderful listen!

J&B

Edit: We just came back for more listens...over the top good.

You two are always so kind. Thank you very much.

Mariachi's band comes into my eyes.
I have been seen in movies of Presley etc. in my childhood, I remember the guitarron very well because it was very impressive.
The music is very fun. And so is yours.
Your vocal is great.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Thank you Shigeki. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

And yes, the real tracks are so very well-chosen!
