I forgot to write, in this poll, the rule we have followed since the first interactive poll: to choose a song that is not present in PA. If you find another song, there is a place left for you.

This artist may be too obvious but this song is in my collection and I think that some of you will like it...although they have been nominated for a Grammy so this might be a sacrilege suggestion.

^My son likes anything to do with Pirates of the Caribbean, and they are on one of the soundtracks, which he added to my Amazon music cloud, so I knew some of their stuff. I do like them. Had no idea they were Grammy nominated or of their popularity.

this one was the hardest one of all to pick a selection.. in fact..  changed my mind again today haha

and neat idea to 'altnernative' selections..  so I'll run with that first.. Micky style of course.. which means with as much elegance as a high speed head on collision 

my first thought was going with Tito..  then thought once about it and thought.. sh*t. who doesn't know him
then thought twice.. but yeah.. do they know my selection.. the album is was from. The one album from him every music lover should have in their collection. I decided not to go with it but it is a great one

so my first choice was this one..  if your ass ain't shakin' and getting in the mood to dance the horizontal bop .. you are either have no life .. no pulse.... or simply are a 'prog fan'. or in reality... both LOL

next one up..  while many white bread types (like me) discovered Puente thorugh Santana.. I discovered another Latin legend through Santana and thought I was going to go with this one. This might have actually been Santana's best non Fleetwood Mac cover

but then my brain kicked in.. and I decided to get clever...and go with one that probably no one and their brother would consider.

The Caribbean gave us two things.. yeah Reggae was one.. but another.. the mix of traditional Wet African religioins and Catholicism... which we know as through some killer 80's movies as Voodoo. However it has its own music.. until today was going to go with this which was probably its mainstream genesis..  from what many actually extremely well rounded critics (and count myself in that haha) consider one of  the best, if not THE best, album released in 1969. 



but of course changed my mind this afternoon so this was my #1 alternative song

so for my selection I had to go with one of my musical heros.. and hero to a great many. An iconic and legendary American musical figure whose admirers included the elite of the elite of the musical world. The father of Tex-Mex ..

I was thinking of posting Nuevo Laredo, Micky. I summered in Mendocino from birth until my teens, my family had 100 acres there before it was a"destination." It was such a gorgeous place back then.

You've got me pegged! Btw, your lovely wife and I are also often on the same music wavelengths. She has incredible knowledge and taste, I always learn of someone else to listen to via her selections.

she's taught me a lot herself.. and I guess I have to her. It may have taken 12 years but she come to appreciate some of my more.. rootsy tastes but she has learned to dig it.  Music with her is so damn much fun. Makes sense.. we did find each via music and this damn site. We are so alike in our tastes.. yet sufficently different that we discover much from each other.. and other than her Jethro Dull fetish. and my I Pooh fetish. we tend to agree on most everything music-wise.

I think you'll really enjoy my selection next week..I'm sure you know it. Hopefully love it as I do. I have advance notice what the theme is and had my selection for his poll... already chambered before I even finished my PM back to Mathman telling how much I liked his theme.  Someone I'm you know and appreciate as much as I do.. and think we may be the only ones on the forum who do.. on both counts LOL

I may have to throw my own restrictions out the window to vote for Doug Sahm.   Some things just resonate so deeply from personal experience that it's hard to not to honour that.

The first that sprung to my mind was Exuma, but it's been mentioned aready, and then the next was the song mentioned by Dr. John that was mentioned I did a poll comparing Exuma and Dr. John some time back (I love those).

Anyhoo, I'll go Brazilian:

IN COMPETITION:

Lula Cortes & Ze Ramalho - Trilha De Sume (or more correctly Lula Côrtes & Zé Ramalho - Trilha De Sumé if the diacritics don't present a problem).



---------------------------------------

OUT OF COMPETITION (also Brazilian):

Jupiter Apple - Little Raver

I missed the part about an out of competition song, so this has now been added to my original post.

Is there a deadline for proposals and for when voting begins? (Not very relevant for me personally because I'm away for two days now, but I think generally that'd be helpful.)

Thumbs Up

and a few suggestions that others might take.. I will next poll I take..

i love the alt selections...  next poll I do.. I open it up suggestions during the 'week'... and say Friday.. everyone speaks up which one they want..  Satuday.. choices get inputted.. and voting starts.

I saw Greg would have gone with Dr. John.. still could have... but in the alt. segment o the thread.. We could have hashed it out and told him.. as I would am now.. take it man.  It was that f**king good.. and bleieve it would have been a contender to 'win' the poll.

sounds complicated.. but don't think it would..  could have some good pre-voting discussions about our prelim 'alt' choices..  if one got soem good feedback.. toss that into the poll

also cuts out early voting.. and allows one to change their selection if they are of a mind.  Decided upon further thought they had something else and wanted that to be the polling option.

may work well or be a car crash.. either way.. we win. I'll try it with my next.. or someone can try that their-selves.

Good idea Mick.  Let me see if I understand it correctly.  Everyone put in their choice that is in contention and an "alternative" choice.  If enough people like the alternative choice, then it gets placed in contention and then the voting starts the next day.  Is that right?
