Editor's note

Fernando Delgadillo's quiet Mexican folk songs

A songwriter who started young in Mexico City, working mostly alone with an acoustic guitar.

For a good sense of his style, try 'Canción Pequeña Para Un Amor Eterno' or 'Coincidir' from his early period. They're both quiet, guitar-driven pieces that don't try to be anything more than what they are.

Delgadillo's writing has that direct, unadorned quality that comes from listening to poets like Jaime Sabines and folk singers like Víctor Jara early on. A song like 'Canción Pequeña Para Un Amor Eterno' shows how he builds a whole world with just a few plainspoken lines. He's kept that approach through decades of recording, without much studio dressing.

He was writing songs by age twelve in Mexico City. His first album 'Tiempo' came out in 1982, followed by records like 'Con Otros Ojos' and 'Despertar' through the eighties and nineties. He's mostly worked solo, though he's played with Cuban musicians like Pablo Milanés at times.
