EH 030EP
|
2006 release. Canadian Dave Atherton started up Los Checkmates in 1966, enlisting the musical services of fellow students Joe Aleo, Kippy Albert, and Carlene Kern, while also picking up local musicians from other area universities, including Javier Batiz, who later played with Santana, and Fito de la Parra (Canned Heat). They made what became Los Checkmates' sole album over a month-long period -- the perfect combination of their two lead singers, all joining to make their sound something unique.
