I concur :-) The little piece within A Pan Y Agua is a [significantly faster,
D'Arienzo-like beat] tango, not a milonga, very nicely done. I can't listen to
it now, but I can hear it in my head. A Pan Y Agua is the one that starts with
a bit of piano phrase + bandoneon, and Vargas doing an intro bit of whistling
and singing "la-la-la" and then some reciting (not singing), right?

Cheers,
