Comments: You rarely see this LP for sale...anywhere! And talk about an incredibly talented singer, whose beautiful voice was without a doubt the best in Tejano music when he was on top of the world...the legendary Alfonso Ramos was "the voice" back then! And when was the last time that you saw a total of 11 group members in a band?! You will notice in the liner notes that the equally legendary Ruben Ramos was Alfonso's drummer when this LP was recorded...Ruben left the band to start his own group shortly after this LP was recorded. This LP was the first LP recorded on the EL ZARAPE Records label. I know that the jacket is not in the best of condition, but you will not be buying this highly collectible LP for the jacket...you will be buying it for the awesome Old School Tejano sound in the songs...killer, and I mean killer stuff, folks! Alfonso's beautiful voice, the spectacular harmonies, and the heavy, heavy horn arrangements are guaranteed to take you on one sensational "stroll down memory lane!"
