First saw and heard Manu Chao on the Henry Rollins show at the time they released 'La Radiolana' in 2007. Love at first sight. Manu Chao was a 'fire cracker' that set off explosive energy from all band members. Bought the CD and played it non-stop during that summer and fall.It kept me alive when I thought I would die. I owe them! I watched their videos and bought their music. They are not all Bob Marley. Their 2001 release of 'Proxima Estacion-Esperanza' is from the heart of Paris France.I would love to see them perform under a hot sun, dancing and splashing rum and sweat on all the happy people who dance and sing with them these days.
