Vámonos Vámonos by Los Damn Ramblers: the most fun I have had all year.

October 8, 2016

  (Los Angeles) I cannot get enough of the Los Damn Ramblers’ just released album, Vámonos Vámonos, and  not only because I am a rock and roller of a certain age.  This music is in the blood of everyone who has ever dropped a needle, ripped a cut or streamed a song.  It is embedded in our musical neural pathways and Los Damn Ramblers found the nerve.   According to legend, the album was born one night when two Latin-American musician friends were hanging out at a local joint sharing beers and laughs, got up and played a couple of Elvis, Cash, and Beatles tunes and then decided to do it again… and again and again for a couple of years.  It didn’t hurt that the two guys were the double-Latin Grammy nominated singer-songwriter Elston Torres (aka Fulano de Tal) and Grammy Award winning songwriter/ producer Carlos ‘El Loco’ Bedoya.   The two of them added some friends  to the rolling musical party and kept playing until they created the best laid-back, rootsy, unpretentious, totally fun [Read More]
