Bares y Fondas

Bares y Fondas (Spanish for Bars and Taverns) released in 1986, is the first studio album recorded by Los Fabulosos Cadillacs of Argentina. The album's main genre is Ska. The music, just like the wardrobe in the early band's concerts, was influenced by bands like Madness and The Specials. These aspects were unusual for Argentine rock bands of that period, and gave the Cadillacs (the popular shortened version of the band's name) a distinctive artistic appeal.

The album was originally going to be called "Noches Cálidas en Bares y Fondas" (Warm Nights in Bars and Taverns), based on the places where the band hung out and played, but in the end it was decided to use the shorter name, with the same meaning.

The singles of the album were the energetic "Yo Quiero Morirme Aca" ('I Want to Die Here'), the nervous "Silencio Hospital" ('Be Quiet, This is a Hospital') and the ballad "Basta de Llamarme Asi" ('Stop Calling Me That', a song composed by Vicentico as a homage to his defunct sister Tamara).
