MP3 Los Jets - 40º N - 3º W
14 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Instrumental Rock, ROCK: Surf Rock
Details:
spanish instrumental rock giants los jets came back with a bang for the millenium and have gathered a huge new following internationally for their fine series of classic rock guitar instrumental albums. with recent concerts in their homeland of spain, england, holland or germany,they have shown why they are quite definitely spain´s number one.
this new set,produced by their still vibrant drummer, eduardo bartrina,takes the band in yet another challenging direction,this time being a combination of authentic spanish sounds with rock feel and a nod towards the famed american instrumental combo the ventures,currently enjoying their 45th year of ininterrupted success on the world stage.
it´s a sure fire hit album when you get superb musicianship
on top of the first rate material and this is the case with this collection of carefully chosen tracks. the spanish themed numbers like el barco del amor, the valiant and the knights of madrid, are just perfect examples of the genre -highly infectious melodies,played with lots of tricky licks and tricks but they are also gently rocked up without detracting from their roots. marvellous stuff!.
even the joe meek classic instrumental husky team (fine version by los jets),could have been a spanish number!
the material originally associated with the ventures is also beautifully done and is not boringly copied as so many bands do. los jets reinvent ventures classics like flight of the bumble bee and ram bunk shus with fresh,intricate skill which really works. los jets return a grand job on this equally impressive classic number. waiting for a train, gets a dire straits treatment and los jets acknowledge australia´s atlantics with a great version of surf number,bombora. and listen to the contagious surf samba, and so what, for examples of the very best in instrumental rock music today.
los jets are flying again!
and how!
