Name: El Querreque (huapango)
Duration: P00H03M38S
Description: El Querreque was originally composed by Pedro Rosa of Xilitla, San Luis Potosí, Mexico, but has become kind of a national anthem in the Huasteca. The verses are almost always improvised, though there are a couple of set verses about woodpeckers and death that singers can fall back on.

lyrics

El whiskey o el aguardiente
Cual sera el mejor licor
Yo digo el aguardiente
Porque es emborrachador
Emborracha al presidente
Tambien al gobernador
Querreque!

Powerful collection rooted in the stories that must be re-told. Played by some of the most generous community music people I’ve met during my foray into Old Time music. This CD is a keeper! Ellen B. (Elly) Marshall

Half intrigue, half genericity. Very David Toop's Ocean of Sound re-appropriated for a fancy diplomatic dinner party, where quaintness has its respect. Not an easy mood to tap into as a casual listener. OQ
