La Kabala - s/t. 1970 RCA
This title came about from the ongoing CD-R revisit project.
La Kabala is a mix of late 1960s swinging
soul jazz, cruise ship styled loungers sung in Spanish, and an
occasional Santana electric guitar outburst to keep everyone on their
toes. Flute and roller rink organ fill the other lead roles. Opening and
closing tracks are best, with the latter featuring some cool seductive
female vocals. Much debate continues to ensue on the origin of the band.
Most folks point to Peru, given that the majority of the pressings have
emerged from there. However Mexico stubbornly remains in the
discussion, and even Americans apparently hanging down south. Perhaps it
really is only an exploitation album - without the proper distribution
to really call it that (economically speaking). Whatever the case, a
fine album, that doesn't require much thought to get into. Very much the
perfect tropical vacation album - circa 1970.
