Ska En Espanol Part One!

Ska en Espanol? YES PLEASE! Oh, sure, I know I talk about Reel Big Fish like they're the only ska band ever, but today we're going to give some mention over to what I'd almost call the Argentinian version of Reel Big Fish...kidding, each ska band is special and amazing. Today we're going to give a quick saxophone ska solo to the Faaaaaaabulosos Cadillacs.

If we could compare RBF to LFC, it would only be regarding how long they've both been around. Well, technically
Los Fabulosos Cadillacs began seven years earlier, in 1985, but the band lamed out from 2001-2008, so I consider them about the same...or something. That is a pretty impressive stretch of ska-maraderie! Yes, I realize that only two of the members have remained throughout the evolution of the band, but it is still impressive that they've kept such a great sound going.

Ganked from TheSceneStar.typepad.com!

Los Fabulosos Cadillacs are pretty, well, see the name - and they're coming to Chicago in April! Woo hoo! Tickets cuestan muchos, man, but it might be worth it to see the band who helped start the Ska Revolution of Buenos Aires. Also, Erika keeps making jokes that she's already bought them, but I can't tell if she's kidding or not...
