Calexico

I don't know the Damned's Version.
I have their first album (Damned Damned Damned) on blue Vinyl. But apart from that I don't know much about the damned. Should do something about that.

About Two silver Trees: I was disappointed the first time I heard it. But I got used to it and I like the song now. But I do still prefer their more experimental work

I actually made a Calexico Compilation (Called Collexico, ha-ha...) of my favourite songs.
So here goes:

You been slacking Pete.

Have Calexico got any other songs in a similar vein to "Black Heart" ? That's a terrific tune.

New album called Aligers came out pretty recently. Shall be checking it out.

Quite a disappointment, if you ask me. First Calexico album I generally dislike.

**Goofle** · 10-26-2012, 02:37 AM

I like it. Not fantastic but it's decent.

Well, it's the worst they did so far. Perhaps that's a better way to describe it.

not that huge a fan

i wish there were more songs with vocals cos the instrumentals really aren't that great, i mean, they don't go where Morricone already went with the spaghetti Western soundtracks
