Eddie con los Shades, 1961
Written by Freddy Fender
This release has an interesting history. It was recorded under the name under the name Eddie Medina because at that time he was still with Falcon Records under his real name, Baldemar Huerta. They wore sunglasses on stage; thus the Shades part. This song is in Spanish, describing a dance on the beach, encouraging everyone, even the swimmers, to get out of the water and have fun dancing. Fender's guitar is bright, with stuttering surf and rockabilly lines, and a hint of Latin flavor.
