Los Bubbadinos

I was trying to put into words why I think Los Bubbadinos is such a great band. Perhaps it is that they sing the songs my family sang in the car during all those long childhood road trips. Perhaps it's the memory of my grandmother singing them as she mixed her cocktails. Perhaps it's the tuba. I think the tuba really does have a lot to do with it; grandma never had a tuba. But these songs have stuck with me enough that for years I have forced lounge singers to play them for me.

Regardless of
why I like them, since I do, I think that everyone else should like them too, since I clearly have impeccable taste and thus have the right to foist my opinions on the world at large. I figure, gosh, all I have to do is put their music out there for everyone to listen to, and soon enough the world will be beating down Los Bubbadinos' collective doors, if the world really had a lot of time on their hands to drive around New Mexico and find them all.
