Tom Eno OUT NOW!
Tom Eno returns to Jack to Phono to follow up his first single La Barajadura. Two Guitars is a more uptempo return to action for the green fingered Winchester wonder. The track is so named as Tom uses two guitar riffs in the melody along with his trademark percusion. The other side features the track Estrella. Both tracks retain Latin elements with masses of Spanish guitar, clicks and claps. Buy me at http://www.fatcity.co.uk/sales/pages/MusicPageRichMedia.aspx?pageid=15743
The version of Estrella exclusively features exciting up and coming German label Jazz & Milk. We are delighted that Dusty agreed to remix Estrella for this vinyl release. He adds Jazz & Milks bass heavy sound dusted off with some flute action! We have added the original to our download release. The release date is August 18th.
