Esquivel, Juan Garcia

New Release!

Mexico Days

The King of Space-Age Pop, the genius of Mexican composer-arranger Juan Garcia Esquivel lay in his audacious instrumentation; his blending together of exotic sounds from other cultures and experimentation with the new tonal palettes that were becoming available in the mid-fifties period from which these, his earliest commercial recordings, derived. Esquivel has been proclaimed by Brian Wilson and by Simpsons creator Matt Groening, "Who'd have thought that out of a genre as debased as easy listening would come something so mind-curdlingly bizarre and beautiful." This set comprises the first digital release of Esquivel s impossibly rare first album Las Tandas de Juan Garcia Esquivel from 1957 coupled with To Love Again; a collection of singles and 78s recorded in Mexico between 1954-57.
