Amazon review by hyperbolium
Throughout the 1960s there were regional scenes throughout the USA that occasionally lobbed indie recordings onto the charts. But more importantly, the artists in these locales combined national influences with unique local twists to create original sounds. One of the more identifiable such pockets of artistry was barrio of mid-60s East Los Angeles. The national hits included Cannibal & The Headhunters reworking of Chris Kenner's "Land of 1000 Dances" (later reworked to even greater chart success by Wilson Pickett) and the garage-rock classic "Farmer John" by the Premiers, but the non-charting local radio spins and club favorites were just as good.
This music explosion wasn't the first time that California Hispanics rocked the charts, as Ritchie Valens had scored big in the late '50s, and Chris Montez struck with "Let's Dance." But the mid-60s version had a new style, a second-generation combination of '50s doo-wop and '60s soul that would have a lasting impact on bands like Santana, War and others. Varese's generous selection of eighteen tracks (all from the legendary Rampart label) includes doo-wop ("Remember the Night" "This is the Night" "Darling (Please Bring Your Love)"), foot-stomping dance tunes ("Rainbow Stomp" "Don't Let Her Go" "La La La La La"), soul ("Strange World" "Follow the Music" "Hector (Pt. 1)"), garage ("Farmer John," in a stereo mix that takes you right on the frat party dance floor), instrumentals ("Where Lovers Go" "Poquito Soul"), and British Invasion influenced rock ("Take My Heart").
The swinging beats, powerful vocals, and call-and-response lyrics underline these songs construction for the East Side's many clubs. Today, they rekindle the sort of excitement that Los Angelinos must have felt when heading out for a Saturday night of dancing. Varese's rounded up stereo masters for tracks 13 and 16-18, but the mono sides pack the requisite AM radio punch.
