LOS CONTINENTALES - EL MILLONARIO



Initially banded in 1962 by Álvaro Yébenes (guitar), Ángel Arriba (guitar), Juan Antonio -Ñique- González (bass), and Rafael Sánchez-Ocaña (drums), they highlighted as an instrumental rock band. During 1963, they currently played in several clubs at Madrid. In December of this year, they played in "Los Festivales de Música Moderna" (Circo Price), along with Los Tonys. In their 2nd concert during the  the sunday shows at Circo Price, they played after "Los Diablos Negros", a fashion band then, being refused by the people, just till they started to play their guitar. From then on, they were accepted. “El millonario”  is a cover of the British band The Dakotas, full of rhythm, and solist guitar Álvaro masterfully plucking.
Enjoy!
