Latin Rock was born in the United States in the late 1950s. In 1958 the adaptation of a Mexican folk song called “La bamba” by the chicano rock artist Ritchie Valens and "Tequila"by the instrumental rock band The
Champs released both became grat hits and both incorporate clear Latin sounds.
I composed a song in that genre /Latin rock/ incorporating some Latin influence in the chord progression, but keeping the vocals in the rockabilly style of early Elvis or Johnny Cash.
Lyrics:
Summer comes now pretty baby
In my mind
Time for love has come to take us
For a ride
Suddenly I see your pretty face babe
Feel your eyes so blue
The yellow-blue bus is calling us baby
It`s calling me and you
Time to laugh now pretty baby
Time to cry
The yellow blue bus is callin us baby
For a ride
Suddenly I see your pretty face babe
Feel your eyes so blue
The yellow-blue bus is calling us baby
It`s calling me and you
Summer comes now pretty baby
In my mind ...
