OTHER THAT DON'T MATERIALISE HIS PROMISES WAS MANU CHAO, WHO

TAKED A LONG MORE THAT THE NORMAL TIME TO FINISH HIS ALBUM WITH IT

IS GOIN TO REAPEAR AFTER HIS EXPERIENCE IN FRONT MANO NEGRA. ABOUT

2 YEARS AGO, ON MAY,1996 IN BRAZIL, MANU CHAO WAS SURE THAT

HIS NEW GROUP, WITH SOME EX-MEMBERS OF MANO NEGRA INCUDED, IT WAS GOIN

TO CALLED "RADIO BEMBA" AND HIS RECORD IT WAS TO BE READY ON SEPTEMBER

A TITLE THAT, CHECKING THE FILES , WITH VCR ON HAND,

HAS A UNIQUE MEANING

WAY THE CROWD THEY GOIN TO BE SURPRISED TOO, CAUSE THE FACT

THAT....OF YOUR OWN MOUTH YOU SAY....."MANO NEGRA" IS PART

OF THE PAST TIME.

NEGRA, WITHOUT A MINUTE OUTSIDE, IS MY LIFE, IS MY

PROUD, AND I'M IN THERE, I THINK THAT I CAN'T NEVER CHANGE

JAVIER: BUT THE NEXT ALBUM, IT'S NOT GOIN TO HAVE THAT NAME?

MANU CHAO: WELL, THAT'S OTHER PROBLEM, THERE ARE ALSO A

LEGAL PROBLEM TOO WITH THE OLD PEOPLE, AND

MANO NEGRA RIGHT NOW ARE A LITTLE BIT, WHAT WE CALL
