A blog about world and global music from a guy who co-hosts the KUNM Global Music Show, 89.9 FM Albuquerque/Santa Fe, http://www.kunm.org. I post one song a day, with reflections on the music, life, and whatever else comes into my mind.

Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner: El Naan and "Charro del Marinero y la Estrella"
El Naan is a band from the Castilian region of Spain. Starting from a base of Castilian regional music, they connect the music with other roots music from all over the world. This rollicking song, Charro del Marinero y la Estrella, is from their 2015 album Código de Barros, a crowd-funded effort which explores the different influences in Spanish music, including Celtic, Arabic and musics from the Americas, Africa and the Far East that went forth from Spain and came back again.
