Several weeks ago, bored on a Saturday or Sunday, I decided it was time to revisit one of my favorite areas of Queens: Jackson Heights east. Basically, this means taking the 7 train out to the 82nd Street stop and walking east more-or-less along Roosevelt for 10-20 blocks or so. I won't go into the details of that trip, except to say that every single CD store that I used to frequent there when I was making more regular trips was gone. Most notably, the bodega with the wall of Ecuadoran CDs where I found this morning's offering.
I know zip about Maxima Mejia other than that she was from Ecuador and sings passionately. And that I've been meaning to post her greatest hits CD here for quite a while, as I think you're going to like it.
Listen to "Imploración De Amor"
Get it all here.
Get it all here.

I was hooked already by the instrumentals, and then I heard her voice. Wonderful.
Many thanks for this! I have always been a great fan of her Ecuadorian compatriot Julio Jaramillo. Maxima covers a lot of the same terrain in this recording. Fantastic!
Gracias ! Andaba buscandolo para mi madre ! Saludos Desde Madrid !
