From the CD notes:
Put Burning Desires on the CD player, head for the kitchen and experience an unmatched culinary/musical adventure.
Is the firey, romantic sound of the Latino guitar the secret ingredient that makes any Mexican/Southwestern dish taste even better?
Evidence points in that direction. For decades Mexican restaurants have hired guitarists to play for customers as they dine. As a result diners associate a variety of classic Mexican songs with the wonderful taste of enchiladas, tacos, salsa and other Mexican cuisine.
Chef Melissa Guerra has long believed in the importance of matching proper ambience with food preparation. She sets the mood for her weekly PBS show, "The Texas Provincial Kitchen," with legendary guitarist Frank Corrales. This CD furthers their collaboration. It matches the right dish with the right music by presenting several of Melissa's most requested recipes with Frank's guitar music. Complete recipes for a full Mexican meal are included in the CD booklet.
