カリフォルニア、チカーノソウルライン、またしても最高な一枚！60sテキサスの舞踏会シーンを探検し、アップデートするTHE REVUESのデビューEP。
Rough & tough from beat one, Cosa Records is extremely proud to present to you The Revues! Exploring the Texas ballroom revue scene of the 1960's, The Revues' first offering is this updated take on the classic Royal Jesters cut.
On the flip side, The Revues take on the classic song "Carino Nuevo", features a fresh arrangement of the quintessential version played by Sunny Ozuna. By blending elements of Texas and California soul, the Revues breath new life into this classic bolero. Led by vocalist La Marisoul, her soulful voice adds a depth and tenderness to Sunny's version. This take is an ode to the Tejano ballrooms that pervaded across much of the Southwest during the mid-20th century. Late nights, bar fights, broken hearts, and soulful music that provided a soundtrack to the lives of hard working Mexican-American families.

A-SIDEは、〈NUMERO GROUP〉のチカーノソウルの発掘でも取り上げられたTHE ROYAL JESTERSによる名カバーで知られるヴァニラファッジの「Take Me For A Little While」のカバー。B-SIDEは20世紀半ばにアメリカ南西部で盛り上がってたヒスパニック系テハーノの舞踏会への頌歌であり、夜更かし、酒場での喧嘩、失恋、そしてソウルフルな音楽、メキシコ系アメリカ人の家庭の生活を彩るサウンドトラックだった名曲。SUNNY & THE SUNLINERSのバージョンを現在のカリフォルニアのソウルの要素を織り交ぜたカバー。 (サイトウ)
