Just bought $150 worth of music and Telenovelas en Español!

So the other day I went to a Spanish(Mexican)music store with intentions of just buying one maybe/tal vez two CDs of music in Spanish. Well I ended up buying $150 worth of music CDs in Spanish. Made friends with the owner and he gave me for free(worth $40)El Código Da Vinci 19 CDs audio libro en Español plus this really nice Mexican poster.

Music CDs I bought:

1. Rocío Dúrcal - Me Gustas Mucho Todos Los Grandes Exitos on 2 discs plus a DVD of Rocio performing. 57 songs in Spanish

2. Juntos Orta Vez Juan Gabriel & Rocio Durcal 2 discs set

3. Lupita D'Alessio 2 disc set

4. Marisela Las Numero 1 one CD and one DVD

5. Vicente Fernandez 2 CDs - E Charro Mexicano and Un Mexicano en La Mxico

6. Juan Gabriel Para Ti - 2 CDs

7. Vicente Fernandez - Arriba Huentitan! - This was an old disc I had long ago on those old records

8. Linday Ronstadt - Canciones de mi Padre DVD - The store owner gave me this for free.

9. 3 Telenovelas - Te Sigo Amando - Pasion - Corazon Salvaje

Plus I order a few other CDs that will be in mañana.

All things I can use with my Spanish class and for myself.

Anyone else buying CDs in Spanish? Can loan out my discs gratis. Then send them back.

Yes, I just bought a Claudia Acuña CD. Her clear vocalizations really help understand the poetry of the lyrics of the songs she sings.

I'm sorry, but you don't need to spend a lot of money buying Spanish's CD'S room.
You can get them in a any warez website in the internet, inclusive in the Youtube website you can download the videos hosted out there.

It was only a council.

Yes as you have said, it's cheaper to listen to music from Youtube than when you're buying the CD's Room.

Money is no longer object para mi. Antes sí, ahora no. I'm making $40 and hour and just received an inheritance.
I drive 30 miles to work and 30 miles back listening to my music in Spanish and Italian.

Went back to the music store hoy. Got Pedro Fernandez's new CD plus Pedro Infante y
Angelica Maria. The music store owner also gave me Las Tres Señoras gratis. Plus he
gave me a bunch of Mexican posters to put on the walls of my Spanish language room.
Oh, y a DVD of Maná. Will put all the music on a 32 g I Pod. Muchas gracias amigos!

A proposito. Any suggestions on any singer or group or songs in Spanish to buy?

If you look for good lyrics quality, you can look for Reyli Barba, Elefante, Joaquín Sabina, Joan Manuel Serrat, Facundo Cabral, Alberto Cortez...

Pop music with no guarantee of good grammar: Ricky Martin, Alejandra Guzmán, Chayanne, Aleks Syntek, Marta Sánchez, La Quinta Estación, Playa Limbo...

Some eighties ballads: José José (great diction), Manuel Mijares, Yuri, Daniela Romo...

Eighties rock: Miguel Ríos, Miguel Mateos, Soda Stereo, Fito Páez, Charly García...


Although maybe you should choose one kind of music you like and buy similar artists...

Prego, Villa.

No es mi estilo, pero tenía una voz interesante.
