Rastlan Oldies Vol. 1


"Ras" as in RASTA (rastafarian) and "TLAN" as in AZTLAN (the homeland of the ancient mexicas) Growing up in California and being of Mexican descent you just cant help but be exposed to Oldies, cholo and Low rider culture for better or for worse but the music is classic. I remember those old tapes called East side story Vol. 1 or Aztlan Oldies and of course Art Laboe's Dedicated to you.

I present you with Rastlan oldies! this is a collection of covers and a few Reggae Soul songs that you could definitely cruise to, if you know your Oldies you'll recognize the songs and artists, if you know your Reggae I know you will too.


You are gonna need Winzip for those that don't know, just open it up and unzip it, yeah someone asked :)

Joe Bataan

Joe bataan means alot to me he is a self described Afro-Filipino from New York who played everything from doo wop soul flavored "Latin" oldies songs to Disco and Hip Hop. His voice is so smooth yet rocky like chunky peanut butter he is a perfect mix of street thug and smooth singer.
