Odisea Burbujas - Disco Aventura (1980)




Speaking of Mexico and moog madness, mexicovers posted this gem last spring and is worth hearing again (and again).
Juan Garcia Esquivel was commissioned to compose the music for the Mexican children's TV show 'Odisea Burbujas' and ......... let sr. mexicant of mexicovers (Mexicantville, Mexico)
paint a better picture for you:

"This was the most popular children's show back in the early 80's, it was called Odisea Burbujas (Bubbles Odyssey), and featured some talking animals: Patas Verdes (The Frog), Pistachon ZigZag (The Bumblebee), Mafafa Musguito (The Lizard), Mimoso Raton (The Mouse), commanded by absent minded Profesor A.G. Memelovsky, fighting the thrash loving always polluting Ecoloco (one of the best villains of all time).
They always traveled through space and time in their spaceship made of a Rock LP, a cup and a straw (called Popotito 22), meeting famous historical characters.

Well here comes the interesting part: Juan Garcia Esquivel wrote, composed, arranged and played the music, so there's plenty of zum zum zum's, guitars and a very famous choral group: El Coro De Los Hermanos Zavala (The One Hundred Voices of the Hermanos Zavala), and yes, it's an album for kids, but actually the music is very good (you'll like it)." via mexicovers
