Menudo Incident

The product is as advertised.Now - let's talk shipping.... I am used to getting CDs with cracked cases because the packagign sucks. This shipment was securly packaged and arrived in perfect condition. Kudos to the seller.On the other hand. Amazon and the US Postal Service conspired to make sure it took a long time to get here and without accurate tracking info - but that is their problem, and not the seller's.

Good

Take the lead singer from the Cadillac Tramps, add some buddies and cover classic punk songs with a Mexican twist. There you have Manic Hispanic. This is a fun album to listen to. Covered here are songs by the Clash, the Damned, X, Black Flag and others. Jet Muchacho, East LA and Medley alone are worth the price. Hopefully they will reissue this album as it is really hard to find. Also check out their other album the Recline of Mexican Civilization, which is even better than this.

Manic Hispanic does super funny spanglish/chicano tinged punk rock covers of some of the best songs ever put to vinyl. This is their first akbum and even though you will probably enjoy it, its not as good as the newer albums. mijo goes to jr. college and the recline. two things would serve you well if you want to really get this band- 1. if you are into or at least know classic punk tunes. 2 if you know any spanish at all.

Laughing while playing this one in the truck. They cover songs almost better than the original artist, but with their own lyrics.
