The Plugz - Complete Collection

the first time i heard of these guys was when i bought the soundtrack to the film 'repo man' on cassette years ago.i think they had 2 tracks on it 'hombre secreto' and 'el clavo y la cruz',anyway i didnt know much else about them and only heard occasional other tracks from them over the years.so its with great delight that i present you with this compilation covering almost all of their recorded output.its a great listen and if their version of 'la bamba' doesnt make you want to dance then i dont know what will!anyhoo please listen,enjoy and if you have a moment leave a comment.thanks!
