Subject: Search for Tango Music on Apple Online Music Site

Tried out Apple's new Online Music download site searching for various
types of recordings including of course Tango.

When I searched for the word Tango the only album that came up was one
called "The Tango Project" a column next to it indicated that the most
frequently downloaded songs off it were Por Una Cabeza and La
Cumparsita. (each song on the site can be downloaded for 99 cents)

When I did a search for La Cumparsita it found an album of Carlos
Gardel titled "100 Anos" as well as another album by Los Indios
Tabajaras called "Serie Platino: 20 Exitos

Most frequently downloaded songs off the Gardel album were listed as El
Dia Que Me Quieras and Volver.

I don't know if there might be other examples of Tango music on the
site and perhaps I didn't put in the correct search words. At any rate
there is a place on the site that allows you to email in requests for
music you would like to see added so if you access the site it can't
hurt to put in a request for your favorite tango. Who knows maybe they
will add it. Worth a try I would think.
