OSS support for Revo 7.1 finally... sounds good so far

Listening to: 'Crazed Fandango' from 'Atomic Bitchwax' by 'The Atomic Bitchwax' on Media Center 9.0

What a great album this turned out to be. This a tremendous cover of a Tommy Bolin tune.

Yes - Big Generator.mpc (the whole album) just ripped from a friend's CD

= un album con un hueco?

Yuki - La Maldita Primavera (the things I listened at Chile... oh, the horror!)

@Roberto:
Right , he meant the "whole" album.
Teu espanhol é legal tchê ("Your spanish is good dude ")

Now let me try this:

Tenho um mamão numa mão , na outra uma maçã para o café da manhã de amanhã.

("I have a mamão (fruit) in a hand , an apple in the other for tomorrows breakfast")

Would you mind making any corrections if necessary?.

@grbmusic:
Saludos grbmusic , también he visto otros argentos por acá.

("Cheers grbmusic , I've also seen other argentinians around here")

I noticed. That's the reason of the smiley.



Gracias/Obrigado/Thank-you

Aunque lo creo que yo deberia haber escribido "agujero" en vez de "hueco". Creo que sirve mejor en el caso. Enfin...
Aún tengo mucho que perfeccionar mi español.

(I don't think language compliancy with the forum rules is really needed in this thread, It's not like anyone will read it for serious reasons anyway. )



Not needed. It's perfect.
Where did you learn that phrase?

BTW: mamão = papaya

It's interesting that you even know how to handle contractions well, since we have so many of them and you have so few (numa = en una, da = de la, etc.)
I wouldn't survive using only de+el

Regards;

Roberto.

Listening to my computer fans. All 6 of them. :-P

Yes, an album (CD) with a hole in the centre (un CD con un agujero en el medio)
El album completo (estoy escuchando todos los temas del album)
I'm listening the complete album (the whole album)
My apologies for my bad english. Everyday I learn a little more of that F**** language [sarcasm]
And now, I'm listening U2 - The Joshua Tree (CD)

Bad Religion - Forbidden Beat

Well, I don't know 'Knocking at your back door'. I used to listen to old Deep Purple LPs from one of my uncles when I was ~12 up to ~14 years old and then, for whatever reason, didn't listen to it anymore. Some weeks ago I heard 'Smoke On The Water' in a movie, rembered 'the good 'ol days' © and bought a best of -> Deepest Purple - The Very Best Of Deep Purple.

I'm looking towards buying some of the Albums that are released as Audio-CD. 'Machine Head' and 'Who Do We Think We Are?' seem promising.

Pulp - His 'n' Hers

A lot of their newer and older stuff was dross, but I used to absolutely love this album when I was young. Just now, I understand a lot more about it; Cocker's lyrics are absolutely precise, straight to the point, and emotionally direct.

Tu español es bueno, Roberto.

Solo tuviste un error

"Escrito" en vez de escribido.

No biggie.


MALDITA FU**IN' PRIMAVERA?!?!
Yuri???

There's a band in Mexico called Moderatto. They are a "joke" band, they pretend to be some "hair metal" band (like Poison) and they play Poison-like version of old corny songs by Yuri, Luis Miguel, Parchis, AS IF THEY ORIGINALLY COMPOSED THOSE SONGS, MADE THEM HITS AND THE VERSIONS YOU'VE KNOWN ARE "COVERS".
Clever, isn't it?
The thing is, you realize that A LOT of those songs would be so much better have they always been like that...
Thay do "Primavera" in concert.

Know listening to their "Motley Crüe" version of "Sueltate el pelo" by Hombres G.

Ah, comprendo. Muchas gracias por corregir me.



Haha. Yeah. Evil, isn't it?

I'll look for the Moderatto version.

But I´d like to mention that my last musical discovery was Mogwai; their "Rock Action" really got me. Didn´t play anything else for a couple weeks in a totally teenagelike attitude...

Remember those days when you were younger and every vynil you bought was new and exciting? well, same feeling with this album. Weird. If you like Tortoise and the like, you must give this a try.

The Doobie Brothers - Listen To The Music (The Greatest Hits) (the "whole" album)

By the way, Roberto, a little mistake:
[Quote] Ah, comprendo. Muchas gracias por corregir me, , the correct is: corregirme , more spanish classes when you want. My girlfriend began to learn me portuguese the last week B).
Later I will listen to Greg Kihn Band - Greatest Hits

Ah, OK. muchas gracias.

Hice 2 años de clases de español, pero no fueron suficientes para tornarme un bueno hispanoablante.



¡great!



Hehe, I can give her some classes too, if she wants.

Escuchando (listening to) Richard Wright - Funky Deux - aac

Great tune! Thanks a lot, Robert.

I noticed that you noticed , I just wrote so grbmusic would notice the right term



Like others said , 'escribido' is wrong , it's 'escrito'.Don't worry , a few days ago our ex-president said 'andó' instead of 'anduvo'.
"Aunque lo creo que" is slightly wrong too , the right way would be "Aunque creo que".



I had a (sadly) short relationship with an amazing gaúcha .She teached a few things to me, then I learnt a lot by myself, mostly reading Zero Hora (a newspaper from Porto Alegre), with the help of a couple of excellent dictionaries (World Translator & Babylon) I used all the time back then.
About "Um mamão numa mão..." , she told this phrase to me trying to be funny because I was curious about this mamão fruit I had never seen before (never seen it here in Argentina).Also because I was delighted with the way they pronounced "amanhã" , something I was unable to do (amanhã , maçã...).
Another funny quote I remember is "O ladrão não gosta de preocupação" , that's by her uncle, a pretty funny guy.He talked about the fact that common robbers wont take risks and will always go for the easiest possible job.

She was so smart , cute and good hearted...haven't seen her since January 2000...sometimes life can be so damn cruel...:'(


When you want to learn it because you like it , almost everything is easy.
You're right , portuguese has many more contractions and that's quite good from the practical point of view.
It's a very sweet language to my ears , definitely sweeter than spanish.

I would make the same mistake. :B

What president? Menem? De la Rúa?



Lo comprendo. Gracias.



That's cool. I learnt almost my entire spanish vocabulatry reading Mafalda.



It's like us trying to properly pronounce your J. Never sounds quite the same.



Sin duda...



Thanks.

I enjoy spanish. Enjoyed a lot speaking it when at Chile.

But I fell for the Palta trick. :B

I always learned to say avocado as aguacate. Didn't know chileans used Palta for that. So I ordered a sandwich with "Palta" at a fast food chain. Blargh!

Here in Brazil, we use avocados for sweet things - not with hot dogs and pizzas. :B

You say "palta" in Argentina too?

Anyway...

Richard Wright - Cat Cruise - aac

The ex-convict who ran away like a cockroach this week , knowing he was losing "coast to coast".



Maybe a little "argentinized" spanish , nonetheless a very good choice.I used to read Mafalda too , a long time ago.



Palta is a rare fruit here but you can get it if you search around.It's green in the outside and kind of yellow inside , I guess this is what you call "avocado" in english.I don't remember if I ever had some palta , I think I didn't.

From my experience mamão is quite different , bigger , softer , light orange or so in the outside , strong orange inside.It has a gross taste at first but I got used to it and then even liked it.But those small brazilian bananas are better all the way , IMO even better than bananas from Ecuador.Very sweet.I even bought some mini-bananas that were also delicious.
Argentinian apples are a lot better than Brazilian apples , IMHO.

At Chile, palta is everywhere. People are crazy for it.



I too like mamão (papaya, in english)



I agree. Your peaches are much better too.



Mucho. Acá también hay palomitos dulces, pero a lo pueblo le gusta más los salados.

Pero lo que más lastimo es que acá no hay empanadas tán buenas como las que ustedes hacen.

Palta=Avocado=AGUACATE

Aguacate es un mexicanismo, que yo sepa no se usa fuera de mi pais.
Otros mexicanismos:
CACAHUATE=Mani=Peanut
PLATANO=Banana
JITOMATE=Tomato

Y mi favorito, ALACRAN=Escorpion=Scorpion

Nosotros tenemos muchos restaurantes argentinos, ME ENCANTAN LAS EMPANADAS!!!
Tambien hay "brasileiros" pero son "churrascarias" (esta bien dicho?)
No conozco comida brasileña tipica.

On topic, now listening to Los Angeles Negros - Debut y despedida.mp3

Do you people now Los Angeles Negros...kind of sixties crooner stuff with heavy organ and funky bass. Sounds like "old people" music, but it's lead singer influenced a lot of mexican singers (even rock ones).
My mom (!) bought a Greatest Hits of them (she loved them when she was young) and I have been listening to it, marveling at how influential this sh*t is, and it is not that lame...

Roberto, AttaqueEG, have you tried asado argentino? The best argentinian food (I think), I like empanadas too, there are a great variety of them here.
The ex-president that Megaman's talking is the more nefast that I remember, I can't say (spell) his name but he was (sadly) president of my country since 1989 to 1999.
On topic, I'm listening: Kraftwerk - Die Mensch Maschine [German] (Monkey's Audio) (downloaded from p2p, here in my town (Corrientes) I can't get the album (CD))

Hehe, in my experience Kraftwerk fans that don't understand german prefer the english versions... nice to see it this way around.

Mayhem - 02 - Deathcrush.mpc (from the original Deathcrush MLP)

Strange. RAE defines Aguacate and doesn't mentions it's a regionalism.

Palta isn't even mentioned.



Same in Chile. How is it said in Spain?



Haha. Sounds very funny.



Si, correcto.



Si te gustas la comida Mexicana, creo que te gustaría la brasileña. También es muy condimentada, y usamos mucho poroto, maiz, arroz, carnes...



The only mexican influence I know of is El Santo

Listening to Stairway to Heaven backwards searching for satanist backmasking. Creepy (thanks for the hint, Robert)

Regards;

Roberto.

I did. (parrilada, you mean?)

I've already been to Buenos Aires twice, and to Puerto Iguazú countless times (I live in Paraná)



I still prefer empanadas.

Found the satanic phrases. It's 3:20 in the reversed file.
Led Zeppelin just dropped some points in the concept I had of them. Blah.

Bruce Springsteen - Greatest Hits (MPC)

Listening to: "Badlands" by Bruce Springsteen, from "Greatest Hits" (1995) on foobar2000 v0.62a

err... just finished. Listening to: "The River" by Bruce Springsteen, from "Greatest Hits" (1995) on foobar2000 v0.62a

Ornette Coleman - The Sphinx(from "Ken Burns Jazz").

Damn, right, Roberto!

Santo rocks!!!

All other "superheroes" can take it up the *ss, as far as I'm concerned...

I have considered setting up an online petition for the inmediate reissue of his best films on DVD, with special features and all...

I love "asado", in fact, I am going to a place called "El Rincon Gaucho", tomorrow.
Best steak-house I know of.

Still listening to Los Angeles Negros...

listening to Steven Curtis Chapman - King of the Jungle
looked at the receipt when I loaded that CD and realised I purchased that CD almost 10 years ago.

hahaha!



There are news about Santo's DVDs on this page:
http://www.wam.umd.edu/~dwilt/santo.html

Seems mighty cool (I love trash)

Frankie Goes to Hollywood - Relax - mp3

My mother used to make several dozens of empanadas a week to sell.She makes excellent empanadas , however I don't like to eat many because they are high on fat.When you eat one , it's really hard not to eat at least five.Asado is also pretty good but very fatty.The best ingredient of a complete asado , IMO , is "molleja".



Feijão , arroz , milho .Eu não tinha provado jamais o feijão preto até minhas viagens ao Brasil.Fiquei fascinado com esse sabor , logo eu trouxe dicas para preparar feijão aqui na minha casa.Minha irmã e meu irmão gostam muito.Mas está difícil para conseguir farinha de mandioca aqui

Orlando "Cachaito" Lopez(bassist, from Cuba).
He is part of the great "Buena Vista Social Club"
BTW: I recommned the Tape(or DVD) "Buena Vista Social Club", filmed in Cuba in 98, by Roy Cooder.

Ibrahim Ferrer, Omara Portuondo, Eliades Uchoa, Compay Segundo, Amadito Valdez, Barbarito Torres, Manuel "El Guajiro" Mirabal, Juan de Marcos González, Ruben Gonzales and all other cuban artists are wonderful human figures and their life are examples of simplicity, faith, passion for the music and perseverance.

Storm - Huri-Khan (Radio Edit)
Next: Storm - Storm

Now Listening: Sumo - Obras Cumbres (2 CD set)
Sumo was one of the more greatest rock bands from my country, this album is a greatest hits, the only problem with it is the bad mastering process, the songs are over compressed and the peak are cuted (clipped), is the same that happen with the latests pop/rock albums.

I miss "empanadas de pollo" y "empanadas de queso"

Quando estuve en Bs.As., me quedé en la Boca, y había una "empanadería" cerca del departamento de mi hermano. Excelente.



Que lástima.

Obs: O seu português é excelente.



It's there, no doubts about it.

Well, Jimmy Page was high on black arts (he bought the house that belonged to Aleister Crowley), so that maybe explains...

Hmm...
Not much of a Sumo-man myself (altough I'm fat, alright <--- BAD JOKE)
I like Los Viejos Vinagres, though.

Now listening to Mano Negra - Santa Maradona (Larchuma Football Club)

Awesome song about Maradona getting screwed up in 1990 to "protect the italians". Mano Negra is one of the most influential (how many times have I made the same comment*) bands in Rock En Español.
Maybe not in Argentina, but in Mexico, their "offspring" is quite numerous.

I just found out that Los Angeles Negros are not Mexican, but Chilean...

* I have been writing an article called "The 20 Greatest Rock En Español Bands Of All Time". It's based more on influence. You know, the impact that some bands made in their peers and the next generations. I have written 5 essays yet. I could post, but I fear that my list, being a bit Mexico-centric would be hard to understand.

Hoy me comi TRES empanadas de queso, a la salud de Roberto, de grbmusic y de Megaman, con abundante chimichurri. Ademas de su respectivo bife.
Como ya les dije, estoy muy gordo.

MANÁ!!!!!!!!!!!!!



¡Millón de gracias, amigo!
