Blue's Men - Prohibido Prohibir (1968)

This is undoubtedly the most precious gem of Argentine garage music. Blue's Men was a short-lived band from the late 1960s who recorded this unique and wonderful sonic legacy, originally released in 1968 on the Odeón label. Sung entirely in English, the album features the powerful voice of Miguel Witis, often compared to Eric Burdon, Van Morrison, and Tom Jones, and included covers of, among other songs, Tim Hardin's "If I Were A Carpenter" and Billy Joe Royal's "Hush," as well as some of his own compositions such as "Adentro y Afuera (Prohibido Prohibir)" and "Reflejo de Sol En Día Domingo."
