Sunny And The Sunliners – Mr Brown Eyed Soul Vol. 2 – CD Released 15/07/22

Description

Sunny Ozuna is a living legend and a man worthy of praise on many levels. In the Texas and Latin Music pantheon, few have been at it longer and are more revered by their fans and peers than Sunny is. He became a star right out of high school in the late 50s and hasnt looked back in the seven decades since. Among countless other honours and notable achievements, Sunny was the ­first Latino artist to appear on Dick Clarks American Bandstand (in 1963). He penned Smile Now, Cry Later, a hit for him and The Sunliners, which along with the theatre masks that grace the album’s cover, became staples in the Chicano Soul and Lowrider Soul cultures. Mr Brown Eyed Soul Vol. 2 is a compilation that digs a little deeper into Sunny’s catalogue and pull some lesser known gems that hold court with his hits. Hats off again to Mr Brown Eyed Soul himself, San Antonio’s own, Sunny Ozuna.
