Description

THE GUANTANAMO BOYS

We present our record label, Gladys Palmera Records; a label that we inaugurated with an exceptional work by The Guantanamo Boys, and in an exceptional format: 10 inches.

It is the first vinyl reissue of one of the most sought-after gems in Latin music. DJs and collectors from all over the world have spent years looking for this marvel and that is why the Gladys Palmera Record Company has just reissued it.

“Let's dance The Bugalu/Aprende Mi Tumbao”, by The Guantanamo Boys, is possibly one of the most sought-after vinyl records of recent times, a jewel produced in the late 1960s by the pioneer of Latin music in the United States, Gabriel Oller.

The first song is an invitation to a party with a dialogue that gives way to a game of clapping, characteristic of the musical phenomenon of the late 1960s of the 20th century known as boogaloo. It is in short a “clap your hands”.

The second song is a guajira, a Cuban rhythm that the pianist Pete Rodríguez associated with the boogaloo when he sang: “Boogaloo is guajira and rock and roll, I tell you mulatto, nobody dances like me like that, like that, like that.”

The passage of time has not affected its powerful pace. On the contrary, today his Afro-Cuban + groove + funk + Latin soul sound is felt with more impetus, which made him a cult object for collectors and DJs from all over the world. The best MCs and DJ Selectors already say it: “The Guantanamo Boys is the holy grail of Latin sessions”. We had been waiting for him for years.

Produced by Gabriel Oller as an Extended Play on his SMC (Spanish Music Center) label, without a cover and with hardly any credits from the participating artists, this album by The Guantanamo Boys was a real discovery for the Gladys Palmera Collection team, the largest collection of Afro-Latin music in the world.

That is why we have reissued it preserving the original sound and taking care of every detail of a recording in which the multi-instrumentalist Ray Fernández (known in the 70s for the alternative salsa-funk band Ray And His Court), the pianist and arranger Papi Peña (Impact Group) and the singer Rubén Ríos, better known as Mr. Pachanga, a pioneer of Cuban music in the USA.
