  1. Glad you like it, Claudia.
    One ought to be careful when comparing. Still, I think what Myriam Makeba was for South Africa, in a way Mercedes Sosa was for the Argentinians, especially in times of the military junta.

  2. Music is beautiful no matter its' source!
    Thanks for the link to Mr. Egg; I have copied his article on ART in order to peruse at my leisure.
    Still working on the definition -- but not sure it necessarily involves monetary value as some have suggested.
    Peace mon ami

  3. Ah, Goatman,
    welcome to Omnium.
    Very glad you will read his article, and I am (almost) sure you will not regret.
    The Doubtful Egg is undoubtedly a remarkable artist and blogger.
    All the best on your quest to find the definition.

    I'll let you know in case I have an idea.

  5. Just learning now about this great artist and lady. Didn't know she had just died. Your gracias and presentation were very appropriate, Sean. As always.

  7. Claudia, Jams,
    sorry. I did not mention her death as I thought visitors would anyway know about.

    Glad you enjoyed the song.
