A<\/span>fter deciding upon buying a mini-stereo set, I was reminded of the band Duane Eddy and other old bands (and songs). Most of these songs happen to come from my dad’s collection, who appears to have the same taste of music as my wife. No kidding. Now is a good time to burn those songs back to CD-R, so that we can bring some loud music in the house, something I’ve not done since I sold most of the CDs in my extensive music collection (a thing I regret to this very day). However, some of the classical pieces are satisfying too. I was surprised to find a Symphony #4 by Mahler in between the modern pieces of Weill, Revueltas and Milhaud.\n<\/p>\n

Anyways: back to Duane Eddy. My mom, who was really into British 60’s popular music, used to have a couple of singles (vinyl) of Duane Eddy. Some of those we played so often that I wouldn’t be surprised they got scratched. There are other good memories to Duane Eddie’s music: there’s a song in there that was the center of a gimmick we did once together with classmates.<\/p>\n

Update: As mentioned in the comments, the piano piece was actually Revueltas’ “Coqueta Para Genio”. (I wonder if this piece has been used in some movie)
