ETXAMENDE ETA LARRALDE
Antologia
Elkarlanean KD-509/510 (1998)
While in the Spanish part of Euskadi Mikel Laboa, Benito Lertxundi and others
were beginning to sing, so in 1967 in the French part did Eñaut Etxamendi and
Eñaut Larralde, with old songs and Etxamende originals of life and some politics
in tight, rubato, tenor-range acapella harmony. They reunite for this 2-CD
retrospective, in which some songs gain light acoustic accompaniment.
