A P-P-PLEDGE PIN?!

I know what you were thinking. "I could really use some Mexican covers of Rufus Thomas right now." So here you go, covers of "Funky Chicken" and "Push and Pull", by Comparsa Universitaria de La Laguna. Despite the name, they weren't affiliated with any particular school, they just happened to be college students, I think their name loosely translates to "Those College Guys In That Band From Lagoon.". Kind of interesting that for whatever reason, they found it necessary to proclaim their affiliation with institutes of higher learning in general. Perhaps it got them tail.

These are from the boss site Musica del Alma. If you like Latin music, blah, blah, blah,...just bookmark it already. Budget some time while you're at it. You'll need it. Oh, almost forgot, there's a Meters cover, "Chicken Strut" by los college dudes down there too.
