Ms. Del Rio stuns the room with her set opener...the absolutely brilliant cover of The Carpenter's classic "Superstar". Picking up the torch Karen dropped when she passed away, Rebekah improves on an already legendary song, mixing Spanish in the jazzy groove, owning the song with her vocal depth, soul and power! She colors this classic as only she can! Accompanying her on guitar for this set is the always stellar Ricky Z. (myspace.com/rickyzgtr) on guitar and Fernando Diez in the background on percussion (www.ferndandodiez.com). This 2004 performance was from Abby Travis' monthly called "Mata Hari" @ Tangier, one of Los Angeles' premiere intimate live venues.
