For everyone who loved the Limeliters, as I did, and with no disrespect to Glenn Yarbrough, I submit that for Malaguena Salerosa, the definitive version was done by the recently departed Travis Edmonson, of Bud & Travis. His lyrical version was applauded by Mexican Mariachi groups especially, who bowed to his authentic rendering of this difficult piece.

On another subject, I don't believe there has ever been anyone - or anyTHING quite like the late Lou Gottlieb. The good doctor, for me, was the spiritual leader of the group and one of the funniest people I ever saw.
