Mato’s collectible \u003cstrong\u003eSound Triangle Records i\u003c\/strong\u003emprint. It’s a heavy hit of \u003cstrong\u003eMiami Latin-funk\u003c\/strong\u003e, dosed up with \u003cstrong\u003epsychedelic garage rock\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003egritty soul \u003c\/strong\u003eexcellence, making for an intoxicating blend of styles and genres on this highly \u003cstrong\u003esought-after LP. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePredominately sung in English, Coke’s only album under this moniker is a sumptuous melting pot of influences, tied together with bright funk drumming, flavourful organs and zesty horns. With a garage band attitude and sensibility, the lineup consisted of \u003cstrong\u003ePaul Garcia\u003c\/strong\u003e on guitar, \u003cstrong\u003eAriel Hernandez\u003c\/strong\u003e on bass,\u003cstrong\u003e Ruben Perez \u003c\/strong\u003eon drums, \u003cstrong\u003eJose Rubio\u003c\/strong\u003e on the keys, a host of guest horn players and \u003cstrong\u003ePeter Fernandez\u003c\/strong\u003e on vocals, whose tone and delivery was often mistaken for that of a woman.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduced by Mato\u003c\/strong\u003e, the record and band were\u003cstrong\u003e well-received in Miami and Southern Florida\u003c\/strong\u003e at the time. Due to a lack of promotion outside of Florida and the threat of a lawsuit from the Coca-Cola corporation for usage of their name, the band fell into \u003cstrong\u003erelative obscurity\u003c\/strong\u003e, becoming Opus following the dispute.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey say the cream always rises to the top though, with Coke being \u003cstrong\u003erediscovered by diggers\u003c\/strong\u003e and collectors searching for a rare groove. One of the \u003cstrong\u003estandout cuts \u003c\/strong\u003eon the album 'Na Na' was recently featured on the soundtrack to the\u003cstrong\u003e Netflix drama 'Griselda'\u003c\/strong\u003e (a biopic of Miami\/Cuban crime boss Griselda Blanco). Other highlights include the \u003cstrong\u003ecrooner-jazz-rock \u003c\/strong\u003e‘Got to Touch Your Face’, the \u003cstrong\u003epsych ballad\u003c\/strong\u003e 'You Turn Me On' with a guitar line reminiscent of The Doors, and the \u003cstrong\u003eLatin-rock groover,\u003c\/strong\u003e 'Te Amo Mas'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoke is a \u003cstrong\u003esensational crossover record\u003c\/strong\u003e, that draws from a sea of different influences. Fans of early Santana, garage-pysch, Nu Yorican and Latin-funk productions should all investigate this cherished album - it will have something for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHoused in a tip-on sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PCW1gp_Kv9M?si=Tv5YAVH8PySMk25b\" height=\"315\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e \u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ddcoG15nyd4?si=w9m8IgbTvdnTr2OZ\" height=\"315\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e \u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/eqmK3TM2bWc?si=-Gna3J6QCko0Y59S\" height=\"315\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Coke","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl LP","offer_id":58738331877760,"sku":"MRBLP314","price":11.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":58738331910528,"sku":"MRBCD314","price":6.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/1384\/1792\/files\/MRBLP314Coke_Shopify_Square.jpg?v=1787213243","url":"https:\/\/vinylvers.com\/products\/coke-vinyl-lp-cd","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
