Trini Lopez: Trini Lopez At P.J.s (1963) 180g Vinyl - Limited Edition
"TRINI AT PJ'S STANDS THE TEST OF TIME...Wonderful songs, brilliantly performed."
With the release of this album in April 1963 Trini Lopez became one of the biggest singing stars of the Folk Revival. "Trini Lopez at PJ's" made it to #2 on the Billboard charts and stayed in the Top 40 for over a year. The album included the chart-topping "If I Had a Hammer" which reached number one in 36 countries and was a radio favorite for many years. The hit single sold more than 4 million copies and the album sold over a million and was awarded a gold record.
This was the album that made Lopez an instant success and the live party-a-go-go atmosphere of the record did much to put Trini's likable energy over the top. What he did, at the head of a trio with Mickey Jones on drums and Dick Brant on bass, was to make folk-pop swing. Other songs include "This Land Is Your Land," and "Gotta Travel On." It could be surmised that by treating such material in this fashion, Lopez had a tiny influence upon the subsequent folk-rock movement...Though, Lopez was more the all-around entertainer with a Latin lilt than he was a pure folk singer, so you also get "America" (from West Side Story), "La Bamba," Ray Charles' "What'd I Say," "Volare," and "When the Saints Go Marching In."
He scored thirteen chart singles through 1968 and became one of the country's top nightclub performers of that era.

Trini Lopez
Geboren am 15. 5. 1937 als Trinidad Lopez III im texanischen Dallas. Vor den weltbekannten Hits lag eine lange Durststrecke. 1952 gründete Trini Lopez in Wichita Falls seine erste eigene Kapelle namens The Big Beats. Über den Buddy-Holly-Produzenten Norman Petty erhielt er seinen ersten Vertrag bei Columbia für eine One-Off-Single, die jedoch floppte. Anschließend nahm er fuderweise 45er für Volk und vor allem King Records auf, die ebenfalls Ladenhüter blieben. 1962 scheiterte der Versuch, Lopez als Nachfolger des tödlich verunglückten Buddy Holly bei dessen Crickets zu etablieren.
Ein Jahr später gelang der Durchbruch. Lopez spielte im Nachtclub von Los Angeles mit seinen Assistenten Dave Shriver (Bass) und Gene Riggio (Schlagzeug). Dort hörte ihn Frank Sinatra, der Triní für seine eigene Label-Neugründung Reprise unter Vertrag nahm. Producer Don Costa erkannte Lopez' Live-Potential und ließ dessen Platten vor Publikum aufnehmen. Die Mischung aus Latin, Folk, Pop und Rock'n' Roll kam blendend an. Titel wie 'If I Had A Hammer', “Kansas City', 'Lemon Tree' oder (in Deutschland) 'America' gelangten in die Charts (13 US-Treffer zwischen 1963 und 1968). Im US-Kino-Hit “The Dirty Dozen' ('Das dreckige Dutzend') spielte Lopez 1966 neben Charles Bronson, Lee Marvin, John Cassavetes und anderen Stars die Rolle des Pedro Jiminez. Weitere US-Spielfilme waren ' - Marriage On The Rocks' ('Dreimal nach Mexiko', 1965), 'The Poppy Is Also A Flower' ('Mohn ist auch eine Blume', 1966), “The Wheels Of Hell' ('Zwei himmlische Schlitzohren', 1982), 'Social Suicide' ('Chili con carne', 1993). Lopez Ist weiter permanent aktiv, gibt Konzerte, veröffentlicht CDs. Zu seinen letzten gehören 'Dance Party' (1998), 'Aylole - Aylola' (2000), 'Dance The Night Away' (2001) und “My Texas Roots' (2002).
Am 12. April 2002 wurde der Entertainer in die Las Vegas Casino Legends Hall Of Fame aufgenommen, im Oktober präsentierte ihm zu Ehren das Vistas Film Festival in Dallas, Texas, eine Retrospektive seiner Kino-Arbeiten.
