Nectar of the gods: Stories Behind Beehive.

Picture
« In the eighty something pages, we can also find a memory of New Zealand's Womad, including a meeting with the Roma band Taraf de Haidouks.'The Cimbalon player moved like a VHS tape turned on fast-forward — Jono, get me some whiskey and local women before the concert. That will help me play faster.'

The album's pilot track, Cantar La Guitarra, is complemented by almost surreal prose, in which, similarly to Jorge Luis Borges, we follow several consecutive stories encapsulated in the manner of a telescope.

In the finale of the story, Jono deciphers the flamenco compás rhythm with the help of a dancing spider and comes up with his life credo: "One should take a hitchhiker, because one never knows. Maybe they're angels in disguise.
