Joaquín Sabina: Deep Cuts

Joaquín Sabina suffered a life-threatening stroke in 2001, yet the rock and trova music he's made since remains as deep and as lively as anything in his career. The gems collected here emphasise his return: he sings “Arenas Movedizas” with a weary, defiant rasp that recalls later Bob Dylan, while on “Postdata”, Sabina grooves over accordions that bring the sound of Mexico across the ocean to Spain.
