Brossa d'Ahir is a true piece of unearthed treasure. The sole release of Spanish singer/songwriter Pep Laguarda and his band Tapineria, it originally appeared in 1976, and went largely forgotten until its various rereleases over the past few years. It's an album of truly gorgeous Catalan folk songs, a rich and organic sound made up of gently strummed acoustic guitars, soft, breathy flutes, and sparse hand percussion. The feel is remarkably warm and breezy, an ideal pairing for a back-porch summer sunset with good friends and a glass of red wine.
