Brincos - Contrabando

Digitally re-mastered and expanded edition of this 1968 album from the Spanish Rock band. Contrabando is arguably their most complete LP; recorded in London by Larry Page - under the stylistic influence of Swinging London and such refined works as Revolver, the Zombies' Odessey & Oracle and the Kinks' Something Else. Contrabando proved the band's viability after members Juan Pardo and Junior had left to start their own career as a duo. The other original members, Fernando Arbex and Manolo González, quickly rebuilt the four-piece with Ricky Morales - Junior's younger brother - and Vicente Fernández. Los Brincos remained faithful to their beat group aesthetic, but at this point also opened up to more eclectic and playful musical and conceptual possibilities. The album was recorded at Abbey Road, with engineer Geoff Emerick. 26 tracks. El.
