La Musica Coolica #98 Guest Post (Stretch Arm Strong)
Maybe one day I should make a mix tape of power tunes. You know the ones? The ones that kind of help you get through those times when you wish you could write a song, but then you found somebody who expressed what was on your mind a little better than you thought anyone else…

Note from Jake: I think it is awesome that this feature with a pseudo Spanish name, is finally including some music with Spanish flavor. Pete’s Post: Sometimes I wish I knew more Spanish… I don’t though… so… short and simple it is. I really enjoy música de estilo de ranchera. I would like to share…
