Bizarre. I've just read an interview with Eva Ayllón in the NYDN and it's the best piece of journalism on any subject Peruvian I've seen in print media for quite a while. The only problem is deciding whether this gossip central rag has done a great job or it's the others setting the bar so low (I suspect the second).Anyway, if you don't know who Ayllón is it's a recommended read. If you do know Ayllón and her outstanding voice and music, she's playing the Blender Theatre, Gramercy NY on July 17th and 18th. Otto guarantees a memorable night if you live round that way and decide to go.

“My music is highly steemed in Peru, but that it’s still not that well known around the world,” Ayllón told the Daily News last week. “It’s a fight against time.”
What kind copy editing is that? Her music isn't 'steemed', might be 'steamy' on occasion but a sancocho is brought to a boil! Cuando ella 'Propiedad Privada' estamos comiendo puro anticucho no un pedazo de brocoli, carajo qué pasa aquí!?!
Echoing Otto on Eva Allyon: an incredible talent. Not just great songwriting and voice talent; she has a fantastic gift for rhythm and pace. Just wow. See her or hear her if you can.
Where I'm at, Susana Baca gets a lot of interest. There is no comparision - I've seen Susan Baca and would again, but Eva Allyon...hmmm, would my wife and kids miss me if I flew to New York this weekend?
