Following our recent musical episodes, listeners have been asking us for some suggestions of Spanish-language singers and groups. In episode 24 we’ve provided some suggestions, talking about Spanish groups Amaral and Ojos de Brujo, and we’ve also mentioned Colombian Juanes and the renowned Panamanian salsa performer Ruben Blades. Language points include more subjunctive talk, the use of al + infinitive, and in addition to introducing some phrases meaning “to keep up to date”, José sings!

We’ve unfortunately had a short delay last weekend with the publication of Coffee Break French 54, Coffee Break Spanish 24 and Show Time Spanish 24. As you know we’re a small family company so when flu hits, it tends to hit us all! We’re now getting back on track and will release the shows just as soon as we possibly can. The episodes which were due last weekend should be available today, and those due this weekend will be pushed back until Wednesday 3rd June. By the weekend of 7-8 June we should be back on track.
We’d like to apologise to all our listeners and in particular to anyone who has an open support query. We’ll be in touch very soon.
