@losstraitjackets ’s 𝘙𝘰𝘤𝘬 𝘦𝘯 𝘌𝘴𝘱𝘢ñ𝘰𝘭, 𝘝𝘰𝘭. 1 turns 19 today!
For their 2007 album, Los Straitjackets recruited three talented friends to perform a set of rock & roll classics in Spanish — Cesar Rosas of @loslobos , @mrbigsandy of retro-country kings Big Sandy & His Fly-Rite Boys, and Little Willie G., lead singer with legendary East L.A. soul-rockers @thee_midniters . While most folks will be familiar with these tunes in their English-language originals, many of the versions that appear on this album were taken from Spanish rewrites recorded in the ‘60s by Mexican teen groups such as Los Teen Tops, Los Locos del Ritmo and Los Rebeldes del Rock.
Celebrate this milestone by jammin’ out to the record with us.
Bonus: the 15th anniversary edition is still available on purple vinyl, and limited to 1,000 copies worldwide. This marks the album’s first-ever reissue and its debut on color vinyl.
