Spanish-language compilation album?

Question

Hi,

I'm getting bored of the limited Spanish music I currently have and I've been finding it difficult to track down new bands I like. I was wondering if anyone could recommend a Spanish-language compilation album in the pop-rock spectrum? For example, in England, we have Now That's What I Call Music, which compiles all the biggest hits of a year. Is there any Spanish equivalent?

Alternatively, I'd welcome any general music suggestions.

Thanks in advance,

Jenny

Answer 1

This does not have much Spanish music but does have all the hits from 1940 to 1999.

on-line music

I don't know if a Spanish equivalent exists.

Answer 2

You may also try sountracks from movies. They generally have several different bands, some famous, others a little obscure. Buena suerte.

Answer 3

Most of Spanish music compilations I know are in the line of Best of ... So I'd check bands like Nacha Pop, Secretos, Radio Futura for oldies and Lagartija Nick, Los Planetas, El Inquilino comunista or Dover for more alternative 90's rock options. My favorite Spanish lyrics are without a doubt written by Joaquin Sabina, the greatest urban poet from Madrid.
