Dinero
no te he pedido nada
quiero que vengas a verme
por tu propia voluntad
I think this is a bulerias letra, but I don’t know for sure.
Decir la pena cantando
sufre más el corazón
que si la digo llorando
Here’s a letra I discovered here in La Poesía flamenca, Lírica en Andaluz.
De mi nadie hace caso
porque me ven sin dinero
encuerecito y descalzo
I cannot remember where I first came across this letra, but I was moved by it and scribbled it down. I recently came across it going through my notes…
Here it is along with a recording of Manuel Torre singing it.
Wow, ten years of letras, and today I’m posting a the first Garrotín!
I hope you enjoy this and Argentina’s rendition with José Quevedo on guitar.
I’ve been swimming in bulerías as of late.
Virtually, right here in Portland. Between the bulerías classes I’ve been taking with Concha Jareño (LOVE), my bulerías classes and preparing for them, and listening to bulerías, this palo has been front and center, and I’ve been loving that.
I have a treat for you today.
Antonio Reyes and Nono Reyes live from their Coronavirus quarantine.

Entro y te veo
enaguas blancas y en zagalejo
por usted doy la vida
pa que te vengas a la vera mía
