London Calling Boogaloo / Day Tripper EP

A 2 track latin soul ep (11m 17s) — released October 9th 2020 on Imagenes

Including an amazing low rider Latin Funk version of The Beatles Day Tripper, this release features two unreleased Boogaloo gems which were recorded in 2005 at Bolivar Films (Caracas / Venezuela) in collaboration with some of the ex members of the legendary Venezuelan Salsa band: Dimension Latina (Latin Dimension) and Spiteri's original band founder and music partner: Stephen Alpert.

Signed to major record labels in the 1970s such as EMI, and having surrounded himself with some of the most iconic musicians of the time, Jorge Spiteri is considered by many to be the pioneer of fusion in Latin music in the UK.

Spiteri passed away in the summer of 2020, but has left a timeless musical legacy that will be remembered through times.
