Los Canarios - Get On Your Knees Trying So Hard
Review by Geneviève O'Gleman
Los Canarios' latest album, Get On Your Knees Trying So Hard, is a captivating and eclectic mix of rock, blues, and Latin rhythms. The band's dynamic sound is evident from the opening track, "Soul Burner," which kicks off with a gritty guitar riff and a driving beat.
Throughout the album, Los Canarios showcase their versatility, seamlessly transitioning from the bluesy "Trouble" to the Latin-infused "Quiero Bailar" and the upbeat rock anthem "Rock 'n' Rollercoaster." The band's musicianship is on full display, with impressive solos and tight instrumentation.
Lead singer, Elena Gomez, delivers powerful vocals throughout the album, effortlessly switching between English and Spanish lyrics. Her emotional performance on the ballad "Heartbreak Avenue" is particularly noteworthy.

Extracto de pollo en lata
Cracking [dance] tune - even if it wasn't 'genuine' Soul. My brother and I bought a bunch of these and other 45's when we went to Spain on a holiday in the late 1960's. They all came in 'Picture sleeves' with plastic liners - excellent packaging! Used to play this at our local Youth Club in Halesowen. Great times!
What is the link to On The Up Beat?
From Spain to the World
Released here in the UK on Major-Minor. I only heard it c.1971, but it was already a big sound of the Wheel era (which had only recently closed) and had filtered down to the Youth Club discos.
*freakbeat. That's what the description should say.
"Its gotte be for your love"...what a top tune this is!!!.....the ladies give me slap though when i request it !!!great record thanks for the memories....and i for one will give i]him bail money.....i like being off the wall an d crazy so this tune suits nme fine!!!
I thought I dreamed up this song. I remember hearing it (or I thought I did) back when I was in high school in 1969 or 1970. I only heard it like two times and I never forgot it. Then later when I became a musician I used to sing what I remembered to my bandmates and other musicians to see if they recognized it. They asked for the name of the song but I never knew it. The song didn't ring a bell but they liked what they heard. For a while I thought it was mine. Then I found it! Yeah! Great song!
KiddieSoul...."Get on your kneesx.....and baby pray! pray!pray! for your love!....Now here we go Baby!" "Its gottta to be for your love" ha!ha!
