Jerry Murad's Harmonicats - Fiesta! (1962)


Who doesn't love some good harmonica music??? And the Harmonicats are awesome! It's kind of hard to believe that all the music on this album is just three guys - Jerry Murad, Al Fiore, and Don Les - playing their harmonicas. I grew up listening to most of these songs (performed by others), and these versions are just great! I would definitely play this album at my next fiesta themed dinner party!

Sweet! These guys are amazing. Watched them as a kid on the Perry Como Show. Had a great act with great music and comedy. Thanks for this one.
