Malo: Latin Bugaloo (recollections) [Part I: Brothers in Music]
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 жов 2024
- About a decade ago, an attempt was made to tell the story of Latin Rock group Malo.
A formidable force boasting over 30 musicians during the course of their first four albums.
Initially, some key interviews were made before the project fell through.
Rather then have interviews collect dust in an archive never to be seen again, you can hear various recollections spliced together for your enjoyment.
Digging into boxes and grabbing a few things from the net, you can hear these legends sharing views of the past.
The working title was "Xochipilli's Dream"...bit of a tongue twister, and probably would have changed, but that's what you find when you dust things off.
Part 1 features vocalist Arcelio Garcia Jr., bassist Pablo Tellez, and guitarist Abel Zarate.

My dad who was black loved these guys and had a lot of Mexican friends.They would spend hours partying and playing Malo and War.
Man I loved Arcelio's vocals off Malo's first album.
Great to see Abel, Pablo, Richard and Arcelio again you guys kicked ass back in the 70's. Thx for the memories.
This is great what a shame this wasn't aired on PBS as I recall a special that was aired about Mexican American bands in the 60's and 70's.
Abel Zarate so underrated.
Excellent job Daniel. What a shame your work is the only thing out there about Malo.
Arcelio García, Pablo Tellez and Abel Zarate, I didn't know how important and great these three were for Malo.
How Intresting my musical brothers Arcelio, Pablo and Able would not even mention my name. Before Arcelio, Pablo and Abel there was The Malibus. With Marty, Jim Salinas and Myself. We all have stories to tell, I have yet to tell mine. Let's not forget who wrote "Suavecito" the song that made Malo...
Hey Richard, I play your song all the time, I love it. I remember hearing for the first time back in the day. 🤜🏻🤛🏽
Hey Richard. In my humble opinion, you are Malo , and nobody can deny without your song "Sauvicito" Malo may not have made it on the musical Map.
You are absolutely right brother! 😎 Last time I seen you play was in Livermore, CA. 2016. You were still good.
These stories need to be told... I wasn't born till 25 years after they started and I'm bigg fan!
Great Work, Malo Deserves It
We love being a part of the Rock/Latin music world! Malo was a forefather of what we do along with Santana but we add our East Coast vibe and rock quite a bit harder at times. Thanks to Jorge Santana who became a friend only a about 6 years ago, RIP. He was interested in doing a show with us and Tito Puente Jr but it did not happen. We discussed this at the Latin Hall Of Fame Awards in Miami back in 2016. We continue and thank all the bands/musicians and especially fans that support similar bands!
Wow,this is very good,Malo is a very unsung band!!They deserve more recognition!!
There are Parts I - IV now, a very interesting read...I am an ex-wife of Arcelio Garcia (RIP), Go to Daniel E. Meza videos...take care.
He had great taste in women too.
U r a very talented musician/composer. Much luv to my first Jr. High crush!
Wow! Very well done, great to hear their stories, and recollections. Holy cow Raul, Coke, the guys were so young then, tough & raw! And it was nice to see Abel get recognized! : )
I love the stories, it's very interesting to know my favorite band's on a more personal level.
Looking forward to part 2 😎🎵
Congratulations to Daniel Meza.
Pablo Tellez is an incredibly great bass player I think he is so underrated also credited as a writer on some of the songs. I really love his approach and style it is very unique and original
This is awesome, thank you for doing this! Looking forward to Part 2!
you need to show us the rest of this this is historical im a member of Malo Arcelio was my dear friend and boss please put whatever more you got Daniel.
Wow, this is a great find. Love all these Malo musicians.
The merger of The Malibus with Naked Lunch provided the nucleus for MALO. However, without composer and lead vocalist Richard Bean writing “SUAVECITO” Jorge Santana and Malo would not have been put on the musical map. Indeed, “SUAVECITO” has become the National Chicago Anthem! VIVA Richard Bean & MALO RIP Jorge Santana & Arcelio Garcia.✝️
I saw Carlos live in ‘68, loved Malo the week Lp came out. I still listen to it, as well as many offshoot bands-Azteca, Caldera & so many more. But Malo stands out as 1 of if not my favorite LP.
Great video from Costa Rica.
Este vídeo es de bastante interés para la gente de habla hispana apasionado por la música debería al menos tener subtitulo en español, creo que hoy tendrían 3 veces más views!
Loved this documentary. I wish there were movies made about all the great chicano bands. All we have to be inspired by is La Bamba. Which I love dont get me wrong ,but it's time for someone to step up and make some movies with these beautiful songs!
Oh man , I love this group "Malo"
I see Raul Rekow's name on the back of Malo's first album but he's not listed on any of the credits. Does anyone know if he actually played on the first album?
No he says he didn't.
Whilst everything is true regarding Richard Bean’s grand contribution, never underestimate the capability of the other members. Pablo Tellez is a world class player, the others are also. Just listen to Malo and Dos to really hear what this band was about.
Nothing against Arcelio, but I'd also like to hear from the OTHER original members namely the horn section, who were comprised of some of the greatest players and now legendary today; Forrest Buchtel, Roy Murray, Luis Gasca, Tom Poole, and the extraordinary Tom Harrell. So sad that the absolutely brilliant keyboardist Richard Kermode is no longer living. THAT was the Malo I will always remember!
We need prt 2.
part two is coming soon
@@gilbertovera9428 Thanks Gilberto this story should be seen. Do you know when?
There are Parts I - IV now, a very interesting read...I am an ex-wife of Arcelio Garcia (RIP), Go to Daniel E. Mesa videos...take care.
Boogaloo is definitely from NYC Puerto Ricans started this badass style. I'm Chicano and I know this shit. Beautiful Sound No Doubt Brothers
The odd thing is I have no Latin heritage. Yet this had it all.
Wrong.! Boogaloo was adapted by Fania All Stars around the early 70's. Along with Celia, Tito, Willie, Ruben and Hector...
Mexicans, Chicanos were already into Boogaloo since the 40's. It was part of the Zoot Suit style
