Dear Tangueros/Tangueras,

>dances of Argentina such as chacarera (from the region of Santiago del
>Estero) and Zamba (from Salta and Tucuman). The great benefit of these

Dear Stephen,

I love D'Angelis' music very much, too. :-))
> I have two CDs of his recordings: Adios Marinero (El

> Does anyone have any recommendations for other DeAngelis CDs
> or recordings that are wonderful for dancing?
I've got "Exitos De Oro" (EMI, printed in Argentina, bought from Ricardo &
Nicole). I love most "Rosicler", Llevatelo Todo" (Tangos), "A Su Memoria"
(Vals), "El Mayoral Del Tranvia" (Milonga). Not all of them are on this
CD, but every song on this CD is very well danceable. I highly recommend
it!
Bis bald, Jochen.
