Los Locos Del Ritmo were unquestionably one of Mexico's best groups of their era and this magnificent set of rock & roll and surf from 1964 performed in Spanish, proves they could play those genres as well as any Anglo or American combo. Several of the songs here are covers of British Invasion and surf classics like Billy J. Kramer's Merseybeat hit "I'll Keep You Satisfied (Te Amaré Más y Más)," Cliff Richard & The Shadows' rocker "We Say Yeah (Di Que Sí)," as well as Elvis Presley's "Kissin' Cousins (Mi Prima)." Particularly excellent is their cover of "I Saw Her Standing There," here called "Las Mellizas," which means "identical twins" in Spanish. It's every bit as driving as The Beatles' version, with a more interesting plot. The singer meets beautiful twins but doesn't know what to do because he can't make it with either of them since he can't tell them apart! Highly recommended!
