Only 7 tracks of the Tipanan are familiar to me but most of the songs are easy to like and Radyo Tipanan is an instant favorite. The other FA cd I got, Suites for 2 guitars is priceless: ex Jimi Hendrix's Purple Haze (a la Bartok), The Beatles' I Want You (Prelude and Fugue), Led Zeppelin's Nobody's Fault But Mine (Toccata), my kind of music. Thanks again to you MM and to the erudite commenter who sent you the Tipanan cd. To Apicio, yeah I have The Debut dvd, I forgot to mention it. This is actually the very first Filipino flick I saw (2002?) in more than 20 years and have purchased 2 others after that. The latest Filipino movie I've seen (borrowed from Netflix) is CAVITE, very good thriller, made by 2 Filipino Americans. MM, I just got my 2 cds, I love them both.

Ey longtime no hear Gonzo. I sense an unfulfilled yearning for quality Filipino stuff among your readers with these comments here and since this thread has already veered ever slightly away from its original subject may I call your attention to the winner of the 1995 LA Times book price, Blue Afternoon by William Boyd. A splendid yarn chockfull of truly surprising Filipino historical and geographical allusions such as the Balanguiga massacre, a Filipino canine Dr. Frankenstein and his aviation enthusiast assistant who predated both the brothers Wright and Santos Dumont. Still available in soft cover I believe. Off topic. Ey longtime no hear Gonzo.

Haven't seen it yet but apparently it is incredibly realistic (story of a jueteng worker) without any of the usual melodramatic 'acting' and 'O.A.' Read Torn and Frayed's review in his blog.

It was a big hit in France. Sad that it was more popular there than here. I think it's available anywhere. It's also perfect for lazing at the beach or dinner time.
