Feelings and Perceptions
Last Thursday I had the opportunity to see Quique González presenting his new project, "disbanded" in Aranda de Duero. After completing his tour "Daiquiri Blues" ( whose album and gave a good account in this blog ), the Madrid artist has decided to take a break playing in small theaters in a much more intimate. Accompanied by his faithful Jacob on bass (sometimes also on guitar), Quique reinterprets some of his songs, makes versions other groups and plays live songs that usually do not have in their more conventional tours.
The truth is that shocked me. It sounded so perfect and really conveyed feelings, made me remember old times, good times in the heat of his songs and his early records, those first concerts in Galileo, Honky Tonk, Moby Dick or the opening act for The Secret on the Riviera. Quique is not a musician masses, even I know there are fans of this blog which is not his favorite saint, but I as well like it every day, I think it begins to have a truly great artist strokes of those who earn the respect of colleagues critics and respected for his consistency and musical career.
I loved to play "Silver Watch," "discs before" and "Even if you do not know, I was thrilled" Yesterday I burned my house "," Ground Plane "," grass grows " "Streets of Madrid" and "Fito" it embroidered with "When you're in the mood" (for which featured Mario Raya, not to be confused with Carlos) and I think it was right to full and ending with his wonderful "If I had known." (Whose video I leave) actually surprised with a beautiful version of "barracks", Kiko Veneno, and one of the gems of Jackson Browne, "These Days" and "Today might be a great day" Serrat. Even ventured to a ranch to the delight of those who were there.
may not be objective with Quique, but I guess it's because, in addition to liking his music, his concerts and records are part of the soundtrack of my life, many of my best moments in the heat of songs. As always happens to me after seeing him live, I'm back to take the guitar to be guard musician like him, at least for a few days. The music is emotional and that is precisely what gives me my Quique.
