I first discovered them on a trip to Mexico, no less. While browsing in a dingy, dusty record shop in Ensenada, I came across an album by them called EL LOCO. They looked like the Mexican equivalent of Black Sabbath on the cover, and had song titles like "Stupid People" and "We Always Hate Your Manners" and I couldn't resist buying it on those strengths......since then I've found a "best-of" album for a buck in some cut-out bin back home in New York, a reissue of what appears to have been their first album in a collectors shop (that appears to be a bootleg), and a promo 45 "World of Love/Let's Make It Now" by chance in some oldies 45 shop. All I know about them is that their main musical genius is named Armando Nava, that they're supposedly still active to this day in Mexico, and that they recorded for RCA. Beyond that, I've been busting my balls trying desperately to research information on them, even trying several web pages on Latin rock to no avail (those pages seem to cover a lot of modern Latin bands, but none of the old ones). Their music is often (but not always) quite garagey at times and quite psych at others. I've become a huge afficionado of the records I have found by them and am hoping that one or more of your readers might be able to provide some historical info. Thanks for your time, y'allll.................RAY BRAZEN (raybrazen@aol.com) ==================================================================== This message is from the Bomp Mailing List.

Due to the chilling effect I first received when I joined this list, I have been reticent to post for awhile...but now that I have the time and the gumption, I was wondering who on the list has a CD I have on order; SCOTT WALKER SINGS JACQUES BREL? Does Scott, in typical fashion, sing in English or French? Just how cool is it? BTW-this discussion of Nick Cave covering Walker comes as no surprise to me...the first time I heard Scott, and I can't remember what song, but my friends and I all agreed that Nick the Stripper based a lot of his career on Scott's vocal intonations alone...I know that Julian Cope is a big digger...any other artist cover Walker numbahs? Thanks!

I don't know if anyone posted this yet, but the Hatebombs were looking for some midwestern gigs at the end of April as they work their way up to Detroit for the Gutterfest, May 1 - 3. Anyone willing to set up a show for them? Email Scott at backbone@magicnet.net or Ken at speedo@magicnet.net. Also, I was wondering what the story is on the Monarchs lately? Did they all go their separate ways, or did they find a drummer to replace Tommy? If the former, are the ex-members doing anything else now? Did they ever release anything besides the 2 singles on Bulb and the lp on Pin Up?

Haven't actually heard the Dug Dugs,but they're supposed to be really good.Its great whenever you can find a cool mexican rock album in a thrift store.A few weeks ago I found an album called "Yo Quiero Rock",with a really cool cover illustration of two kids dancing,and a bunch of tracks by a band called "Los Somnabules".Its just completely wild 50's rocking stuff,better than most of the tracks on the "Blue Demon" mexican comp that came out a few years ago.It looks to be a late 50's pressing. I also found a '75 album by "Three Souls",which is just real low budget rocking stuff with snotty vocals.Even the track called "tributo To Jimi hendrix" is just three chord boogie! ==================================================================== This message is from the Bomp Mailing List.
