Feliz Navidad
|
I want to wish you a Merry Christmas, from the bottom of my heart.
Immortal lines from Jose Feliciano way back in 1970. All of sudden it is one of the most played songs on the Radio again. Perhaps because the album Feliz Navidad was long forgotten and hard to find. But it was actually released again in 2001 by BMG with all the songs of the original album.
Just looking for that one song... A cheaper version is available for a bargain price of five dollars at oldies.com.
And why Feliz Navidad is such a good song...?
Feliciano: People just really like that song because it’s simple, it hits a certain core ... I did it both Spanish and English. It’s easy to remember and it appeals to both cultures, English and Spanish. People play it because it’s a happy song, it has a lot of energy.
Ultimate60s agree and wish everybody Happy Holidays and a good new year, from the bottom of our hearts. |

The Rascals
|
Collector's Choice has re-released the classic albums with The Rascals (The Young Rascals).
Unlike most pop groups whose attempts at psychedelia reeked of commercial calculation and psuedo-hip self-consciousness, the Rascals not only made a great psychedelic album with
Groovin' but also made what was quite possibly the most cohesive album of their career. But then, they always were something of a garage band, which made the step to psychedelia an easy one. You will find one classic after another on this 1967 release.
Collections , the Rascals' sophomore release ranks among the most danceable white rock music of its day, and marks the first flexing of the band's songwriting muscles. Another classic, from early 1967.
Among the other albums you will find The Young Rascals from 1966, Freedom Suite from 1969, Once Upon A Dream , See , and Search And Nearness .
