Los Jockers En La Onda De

If you like the Rolling Stones of the glorious '60s, or the Yardbirds, or the original psychedelia, this album is for you."En la onda de" (1967) by Los Jockers is released now on vinyl, from the original IRT masters!Los Jockers were formed in 1964, and started playing live in 1965, and were one of the first rock groups to have great success locally. They used flashy clothes, influenced by the British mods at first, and by psychedelia, and had a very aggressive and raw live show. Their music was called "pop contracultural" (counterculture pop).Their version of the Rolling Stones' classic "Satisfaction" hit the radios before the original Stones version was known locally, and it was such a smash hit that during their show at the "Viña del mar festival" they had to play the song five times!!! The Jockers were one of the pioneer bands of Chilean rock, ahead of their time, and the first to differentiate themselves from the more romantic 'new wave' style, by being ahead of the curve in adopting the psychedelic clothes and long hair that were the image of rock in the world at that time.Precursors of Chilean rock, mainly influenced by British rock, this is an essential album to relive the days when rock was young, original, and fresh.
