LOS NORTE AMERICANOS - THE BAND I HEARD IN TIJUANA Vol. 2 LP 67

 Love this cover and theme however this is only volume 2 that I found at Goodwill thus would like to hear the first.  This one is cool because I think their version of "Spanish Flea" is the one I used to hear on the radio all the time and that still goes through my head on occasion.

JOAN SEBASTIAN - st tape 86

 I guess he is a top musical artist in Mexico!  I had no idea as I got from Goodwill long ago and just wanted to post it so there was no confusion with John Sebastian.

VA - TEX-MEX PARTY CD 97

 Features just two artists:  Santiago Jimenez, Jr. and Flaco Jimenez.  When covering the Texas territory in my first factory sales engineer job, I used to ride around in our Texas rep's big Lincoln car going working the territory and he was a native but I remember he said he absolutely hated Tex-Mex food...LOL.

Herb Albert and the Tijuana Brass Band - The Lonely Bull LP w Volume Two LP w South of the Border LP w Whipped Cream and Other Delights LP w Going Places LP w S.R.O. LP w What Now My Love LP w Herb Albert's Ninth LP w The Beat Of The Brass LP w Summertime LP w Rise LP 79 w Fandango LP 82 w Bullish Maxi-Single EP 84 w Diamonds EP 87 w 3 O'Clock Jump EP 89 w Greatest Hits LP w Greatest Hits Vol. II LP 73

 I first heard of this band from Soul Asylum's parody EP called 'Clam Dip and Other Delights'--the first rare Euro version--with Karl Mueller (R.I..P.) on the cover LOL.  I would see their vinyl at thrift stores all the time all beat up thinking they sucked but learning later that they were very popular so many were keeping the good copies.  I pulled this out last weekend to rip though still missing a 1967 album because I work with a guy--first I met that actully likes the band a lot (as good luck to send positive thoughts for the surgery which today I learned was a success) and so I started collecting every one I saw on lunchbreak over a couple years so I could pick and choose the best copies though a couple still beat up.   But most are mint which is hard to find for these 60's vinyl that I usually have to spray with alcohol to dry then play a few times to break off the hard caked on dirt. Too afraid I will spill the tub of cleaner for the Spin Clean method and not sure if that works as well on hard caked on 60's stuff.  Anyway still a back breaker to cut out the random pops and the first album had some groove wear.

VA - MEXICAN BRASS 5LP BOXSET

This turned out to be not exactly what I expected when I found it at Good Will as I think it was named after a type of horn rather than the merry camaraderie that I was expecting with some street horns BUT that is O.K. as I like horns and there are some interesting sounds and it was MINT.
