LETTER FROM THE EDITOR:
ands from all over Latin America's wide expanse are creating new hybrids of music by marrying their traditional rhythms to rock rebellion and the rolled eyes of American pop culture. And whether you agree that Santana's classic "Oye Como Va" is the genesis of Rock en Español, there's plenty of history to the "movimiento."
John Prine's quirky odes to furtive tokers and fractured vets may have earned him the protest singer tag when he emerged in the early '70s, but throughout his career, he has focused on the relationships at the heart of a song.
Natalie MacMaster and Eileen Ivers are highly skillful, accomplished instrumentalists and extravagantly entertaining performers who give their music a commanding flair that draws in listeners visually as well as aurally.
Plus, an early entry for lists of the best music of the century, Dave Alvin on and off the road, and more.
