Garland Jeffreys - El Salvador (Official Music Video)

“El Salvador“ from the album “Guts for Love“ (1982). EL SALVADOR is another of the special “Spanish Songs“ that I feel compelled to write. I love the classical guitar, and that flavor that reminds me of my grandmother Raffaela. She was an incredible person, a feminist way before her time.
