Los Freddy's

Artist: Los Freddy's
LP: Un Sentimiento
Song: "Del Amor y De Las Rosas"
[ listen ]

When my friend Nicholai came over last week and I showed him this record, he exclaimed, "Why are they all so ugly!?" I grabbed the record from him and was about to come to The Freddy's defense, but after a quick visual survey, I had to agree that they are indeed a pretty unattractive group. The best I could come up with is that the guy on the far left is kinda' cute in a Roman-Polanski-circa-1971 kind of way. Originating in beautiful Guadalajara, México, Los Freddy's had a string of hits throughout the 1960s, '70s, '80s and '90s. Their "Un Sentimiento" LP was released in 1976; you can find their discography and more info on the band here. Pictures and notes (with a Babelfish translation) from the back of the record are included below.

  

New successes with incomparable the Freddy's in a disc 
that reunited the ingredients necessary to make a song 
great: style, feeling and projection.

In this one volume, the Freddy's offers a series to us of 
melodies with label of hits, adding therefore a link to his 
already more releases chain of triumphs.
