In the early days of stereophony, musicians were inspired to explore this new technology which opened the gate to an exciting new potpourri of sounds, as is testified to in recordings of the day. Should the thud of the bongos come out of the right or left channel? Shall we have the background singer humming from the depths of the room, or should we zoom him in right in front of our nose, as it were? How can a tinkling harpsichord hold its own against the crashing waves of sound produced by a big band? One question after another arose - to which Juan Garcia Esquivel with his sound machine found highly entertaining answers.

In the early years, Esquivel - who later created a sensation with his own pop compositions - kept well known cocktail-lounge favorites. The instruments he employed were far from conventional however: with Chinese bells, gongs, Jew's harp, a well-assorted battery of percussion, a solid brass section and driving Latin rhythms, his ensemble is all set to astound the listener. And while you're still wondering whether that was a train whistle you just heard or perhaps a steel guitar, the next sound is already massaging your acoustic nerve. This is easy listening at its best.
