The is the first studio recording from The Twins/Los Giacoman/Los Cuates (the band so good they have three names!) and the first release by MexMo Productions of San Carlos, Sonora, Mexico. MexMo is a collaboration of Leslie Sahlen of Gatorlegs Music, Tucson, and 60s hit maker, Chris Montez. We are all very proud of these unique and creative versions of well known latin songs. Being a recent ex-pat from north of the border I had not heard these songs prior so they were new to my producer ears. The result is a style mix of Gipsy Kings meets Harry Nilsson with a splash of Henry Mancini goes Tropical. I tried to retain the live sound of the band while adding the studio sweetening,violin and keyboard parts. The results are very different arrangements from the familiar. The Twins bring to all their material a fusion of middle eastern, latin, gyspy, and jazz influences to create truly fresh interpretations of classic and contemporary latin hits. On The Twins first CD, we did several songs by Augie Myers (Texas Tornados) and classic rock and roll. This CD includes unique interpretations of traditional classics and songs made popular by Juan Luis Guerra, Ricky Martin, and Juanes.
