Anyone want to take a look at this artist? The 1968 release date on discogs is clearly wrong, as the originals indicated were released ~2-3 years later. Found while searching for new adaptions of Me and You and a Dog Named Boo ..., but what is really peaking my interest is the possible adaption of Doesn't Somebody Want to Be Wanted originally by The Partridge Family ....

No luck on the release above?


Someone has edited the entry to change the release date to something more logical. Checked YT again and I'm still striking out on those likely covers.

But the problem is that this band often recorded the works in the original English in spite of the fact, that the title is in Spanish. The question is: when did they do that. Some performances can be found on YouTube and some on Spotify, but only a relative few.

Could you check out at your end whether Doesn't Somebody Want to Be Wanted was sung by them in English or in Spanish and in the latter case: who translated the lyrics?

I got no returns on YT when searching under the English title. It's total dead-end for me on this artist.
