SAPO included Richard Bean, the noted congero Raul Rekow, who would join the Santana band a couple of years later. The rest of the band was rounded out on bass by the now famous comedian Jose Simon, pianist Kincad Miller, Oscar Estrella on guitar, Bobby Gaviola on trap drums, Trumpets, Bill Atwood, Joe Ellis and trombonist Wayne Wallace (Bill Summers, Pete Escovedo, Tito Puente, and John Santos & The Machete Ensemble). One of their first songs was a funky guajira that Richard Bean wrote, called I Can't Make It The song was at it's height and became an anthem during the Lowrider era around 24th st. and Mission, as lowriding reached it's peak in the '70's and early '80s. The album featured an exciting selection of latin flavored tracks like Ritmo Del Corazon (with its "Orale A Orale" chorus) Sapo's Montuno, Been Had, and Nina . Recorded at the Wally Heider Studios by famed engineer Fred Catero (Tower of Power), the album never got commercial air play it deserved but was an instant street hit. Sapo disbanded in the late '70s. Richard Bean is still an active performer.
