From Puta's Fever (1989). Puta's Fever is the second studio album by Mano Negra, released on 1 September 1989 by Virgin. The album's personnel list credits Daniel Jamet (billed as Roger Cageot) as lead guitarist, with Manu Chao on guitar. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Telecaster through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Mano Negra's other songs from Puta's Fever, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup.
