"Pajarillo", by Aldemaro Romero Y Su Onda Nueva.
If this were a Hollywood pitch, it would go as follows:
"Philip Glass meets The Swingle Singers."
Which is slightly unfair to all three parties, but I promise you that if you have "Einstein On The Beach" in mind when listening to this, you can certainly imagine it as something that may have sneakily insinuated itself into Glass's masterwork.
The Venezuelan New Wave may not have been our New Wave, but it was, in its own way, pretty damn cool.
PS if I can survive the next two weeks I hope to resume slightly more regular transmission shortly thereafter. But at this stage that is a pretty big "if".
