Hi all,

Hope you are Ok.

I am at home (sick) and browsing the web.
I just came across these 2 lovely Ventures acoustic sessions in Mexico and Japan?.
You've probably seen them before, for me, it's the first time.
The only tune I know is Maria Elena, but I very much enjoyed the others and especially the first lively tune.
A superb live sound and playing.

Make me feel like doing an acoustic next with my Yamaha Elec / Acoustic.




Blessings to all,
Abel

Hi all,

I would much like to find out the name of the very first tune if someone knows it
I think I would love to play a personal version of it if I could find a backing track.

Blessings,
Abel

Abel - the first tune is "Mexico", originally by Bob Moore then recorded by Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass on their first LP and also by The Ventures on their Telstar LP.

Hi all,

Thank you Alan.

Couldn't find the BT on Karaoke-Version UK, my favorite place for BTs.
Could only find a Midi file.

Blessings,
Abel
