Recordist's notes

Plaza el Descanso, Valparaíso, the sound of this gas seller's truck can be heard every day around noon. It's not played over loudspeakers, but by a worker who plays the railing with metal stick. Impressive performance, and the rythm of well known local melodies. (SD702, Audio Technica BP4025)
