Vibe Box for May - part 3

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

This month, our Vibe Box comes from Alan Shelly - licensee of rock and blues bar Echegarito.

In the May issue of European Vibe Magazine, Echegarito was the venue for our monthly bar chat - where we talked about the pickly subject of infidelity. Check out the magazine to see what our bar chatters had to say about cheating.

These are Alan’s choices:

7. The Trooper - Iron Maiden.
because: Not alot to say about this. It’s Iron Maiden!!

8. Plush - Stone Temple Pilots.
because: A great single release from a debut album from a band that was highly under-rated.

9. Rocket Queen - Guns n’ Roses.
because: I chose this not only because it’s a great song but it’s probably the only song with a real screaming orgasm stuck in the middle (i think they call it “taking it to the bridge”!!).

10. Rearview Mirror - Pearl Jam.
because: A very powerful number from one of the best alternative rock bands of the 90’s.

These are Alan’s choices:

4. Won’t get fooled again - The Who.
because: Probably one of the longest songs ever released by a rock band but you never get bored half way through like with most lengthy numbers.

5. Gimme Shelter - The Rolling Stones.
because: One of the more diverse songs from stones and not too commercial.

6. Radar Love - Golden Earring.
because: A great one hit wonder from one of Hollands greatest exports!

These are Alan’s choices:

1. Emerald - Thin Lizzy

because: A great mix of rock and celtic music with great guitar solos.

2. Messin’ with the Kid - Rory Gallagher

because: This is one of his most famous tunes and deserves high ranking due to its originality. 

3. Black Dog - Led Zeppelin

because: Because Tom Graham thinks so!

Echarito is unique in Madrid in that it is a Spanish bar de copas with Stella Artois and Guinness on draught. (The Guinness is short-draw, too!) There is live music downstairs in the cellar bar.
How to get there: Echegarito, Calle Echegaray 21, metro Sol/Sevilla.
