Hi Juan (and all Argentinean friends),

I am a great fan of Mercedes Sosa. I was lucky enough to see her live  
in concert and know no recording device could do justice to her  
magnificent voice.

When Luciano Notarfrancesco was coming to NY he asked me if I wanted  
anything from Argentina I asked him if he could bring a couple of her  
cds which were hard to find then. I still treasure them to this date.  
(BTW I haven't heard from him and many other Argentinean Squeakers for  
a while, hope they are well).

I salute Argentina for her great artists and also for great programmers.

Tansel
