Luis Andrés y su Orquesta: Fiesta en París


This 12" from Sello Vergara Industrias Fonógráficas is apparently LP. 128. That's about all I know about it. It also appears that Luis Andrés has another album out ("Mambologia") and that several comraderic bloggers enjoy it. But that's it as far as info goes. The album itself is quite pleasant. A little cheesy. A little easy listening. Very romantic. Our ears are graced with mambos, boleros, a bolero mambo, calypso, fox trots, slow rock, a java and even a marcha. Why on earth this seemingly French dude is sampling such a variety of musical types is beyond me. But it makes for a cheerful listen.

Final Verdict: "Covered in sap but still tasty."

hiya slim. i'm not traditionally in the habit of selling my records. you are welcome to make an offer, but it would have to be pretty outrageous for me to think about parting with this pretty piece....
