Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

Your welcome, Jeff. Yes, "Bring A Little Lovin' ", that's a great number, too. One of my favourites from Los Bravos when I make some djing at parties, being the other one (apart from "Black Is Black") "I'm Cuttin' Out"... totally impossible not to move your feet with th...

Yeah, great song, too. I like it a lot. I think a bunch of these songs were probably recorded at Decca during the same timeframe (April-June 1966). Mike Vogel (Kennedy) recorded lead vox, and Toni Luz backing vocals (the rest of the band made some vocals too). They could only play/record, as the who...

He was without any doubt Mike Kogel (a.k.a. Mike Kennedy) who did that session, his voice is really unmistakeable. I saw him singin this song live. In fact, the voices heard in the song are the only part recorded by the original Bravos musicians (back vocals credited to Toni Luz, the spaniard guitar...

A Rickenbacker sight, in this pic from the recording studio for future new release of next Jose Ignacio Lapido album: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/nobroad/Rickenbacker/Lapido2010motril_guitRickenbacker.jpg Probably the owner of that 360 near the Fender Silverface amp is Victor Sánchez, his...

I've read they lost some of their instruments in a car crash... Another spanish band with Rickenbackers (and new cd edited: "Love Unique"): Sugar Mountain , like Neil Young's classic song. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/nobroad/links/sugarmountain.jpg They make rock, and they use 1...

it's about time to mention another interesting spanish band with Rickenbackers: Los Escándalos http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii73/jnr_63/rickbckr/losescandalos.jpg a really nice Rickenbacker couple: 1997 RM fireglo, and 4001S jetglo (at least, that's what appears to be from that distance, the p...

Miguel, I forgot about this thread, here you have it: http://www.los-elementos.blogspot.com/ well, I came here because I think I didn't mention before another great spanish rock band with Rickenbacker: their name is maldebares . Laura is a wonderful singer, and she plays great rhythm guitar gimmicks...

ricardo, que haya suerte... seguro que encuentras gente para tocar
sobre el anuncio, ya te lo ha dicho Miguel: alto y claro.

you'll find a bunch of them, for sure.

so you'll be hitting soon your first rickenbacker chord there...
wellcome !

I watched their "30 años" concert dvd a couple of days ago. It has a very good and clear sound, and I was delighted to see Álvaro using his original Hofner 12 at the beginning of the set. That was the guitar he used in their first records. I was told by someone that it has a pretty sound, ...

Ricardo:
I hope all is going well with your "mudanza", and those nice guitars and basses reach Puerto de la Cruz safe
Tenerife wiil be a good place for them...

just another new spanish band with Rickenbacker: Charades.
they released in 2008 a pretty nice record, with some really good pop songs in it...

Charades "En Ningún Lugar" video

They were really special, one of my favourite spanish acts from the 60's. That "Gloria" cover can make it at any good party ! It's really difficult to say, about your question. It's been said he used a Vox AC30, and I think they recorded at the Ateneo de Gracia studios. Their sound was raw...

...and maybe this same one, too?


here's another pic with that one.

and the last shot: with his 12 stringer...
