Tango Collection - Orquesta Típica Victor

RGS 1642

Wow! A new CD of the Orquesta Típica Victor.

The disc is generous at 23 tracks and there is lots of material that isn't on EURO, including their rare version of El amanecer. Fabulous! If you like the old style music, this is for you.

Juan D'Arienzo - Solo Tango

BMG 71372

This CD, the reprint of the old FM Tango CD, is (was) the best D'Arienzo CD ever made, with a mix of 30s and 50s tracks. For a long time it was our recommended D'Arienzo CD. Then it got deleted.

Then last month it reappeared. I can't get a straight answer from BMG whether it's been reprinted or not. In the meantime - we have some. If you don't have this, you will want it for the outstanding 50s tracks, many of which have been unjustly ignored by history.

Francisco Canaro - Bailando Tangos, Valses y Milongas

Reliquias 595159

This is our recommended Canaro CD, but we've never offered it in the club before and it's just possible you don't have one.

This cd has tracks recorded between 1935 and 1941, which, unsurprisingly, is roughly the same time frame as the D'Arienzo cd above. The strong rhythms and simple rhythms are easy to enjoy, and the milongas are treasures
