Folk Music Of Spain
What’s that old spanish sounding folk group called?
Hi,
I was recently listing to some music at a friends, and I forgot the name of the band.
It was on a vinyl, and I was told that the band was a group of old musicians from a country like Spain or Peru (I forget the country, but they sounded Spanish-like). The story was that people went to record this music before certain people died and the music lost forever, and to their surprise people they presumed dead turned up to play.
It was beautiful music, and I’d love to get it to listen too, so if you have any idea, help please?
It might have had “club” in the name of the album/artists 
hi there,
this one : “Buena Vista Social Club” ??

Alan Lomax (January 31, 1915 – July 19, 2002) was an American folklorist and musicologist. He was one of the great field collectors of folk music of the 20th century, recording thousands of songs in the United States, Great Britain, the West Indies, Italy, and Spain.

found it…What wondrous love is this
What wondrous love is this, O my soul, O my soul!
What wondrous love is this, O my soul!
What wondrous love is this that caused the Lord of bliss

To bear the dreadful curse for my soul.
