Rating:  Summary: Oh the Romance of the spanish language Review: A bit about myself. I'm a guitarist and am learning spanish. I have found it useful to learn songs with spanish words to enhance my language skills. Over the years, I have purchased a number of songbooks containing songs with words in spanish, but found this one to be the most useful, because the songs are more contemporary. Many of the songs in this book are available on CD's by various latin performers. If you speak any spanish, you will find fascination in the translations. For instance the words to Perfidia simply do not match at all with the English translation. Have some fun with this, and see what you would have used instead. The musical scores are excellent, with very nice guitar chords. My personal favorite is Reloj, the very romantic interpretation of time with a lover, or time away from a lover. But there are many other romance standards in this collection that will enhance your repertoire. Picture yourself with your guitar standing beneath your lover's window, singing songs from this collection. Ah, the language of love, with the songs, is sure to be a hit. Kevin McCusker
