"Los Nuggetz From Latin America" - 60's Garage & Psych - disc 3

When I see Producer James Austin's name on a reissue album project I know I'm in for something unusual. Austin spent many years at Rhino Records producing "theme based" reissue box sets - often in unusual packaging (though sometimes hard to store) - many of which are still in my collection after 30 years…...Austin left Rhino years ago and, with another Rhino veteran, Arny Schorr, helped found Rock Beat Records. To date most of their releases have been single or double CD albums. Though I may be wrong, this is the first multi-disc set with deluxe packaging and detailed liner notes.
The four disc set is packaged with the CDs stored in the front and back covers of a lavishly illustrated 70-page hardbound book. After the introduction by Austin, there are detailed track notes - by Randal Wood - and gorgeous color reproductions of the record sleeves or album covers. There are a whopping 101 tracks here, most, if not all, you have probably never heard before, unless you lived in South Texas in the 1960s and travelled to South America a lot during that time.
To get you into the mood, Austin starts of the album with an intro we all know by hear: "Ono! Dos! Tres! Quatro!....". Yep, it's "Wooly Bully", but not by Sam The Sham and the Pharaohs. This time it's in Spanish by Los Shain's. What follows are many more songs that we know in their English versions but are done here in Spanish by groups from Latin America (Mexico, Peru, Dominican Republic) and Spain. There's The Kinks' "You Really Got Me" , The Stones' "Satisfaction" and even Nancy Sinatra's "These Boots Are Made For Walking" all done by local bands in Spanish. Austin always loved to insert "odd tracks" into his compilations so we are also treated to a Volkswagen commercial, and a few Spanish radio station IDs. - Steve Ramm- Amazon
