Malo Biography
The story of a band called the Malibus, named after the Chevy sportscar. They became a very well-known and popular band in the Bay area in the mid-sixties. At first they played mainly r&b, but later started to add Latin music to the mix."Malo"
Richard Bean , wrote a new lyric which gave birth to a major hit record. Malo members Pablo Tellez and Abel Zarate also got credit for the composition.
“Suavecito," which had evolved from a song they had written and been doing in clubs called “My Love.”
Three or four years into the career of the Malibus, a guitarist was brought in by the name of Jorge Santana, the brother of the already famous Carlos Santana. In 1970 the Malibus changed their name to Malo and things started happening. At times numbering as many as ten or more musicians, Malo's powerful sound was different to that of Santana in that the line-up included a serious horn section, which included, at various times, leading trumpet player Luis Gasca, as well as percussionists Coke Escovedo, Francisco Aguabella, Victor Pantoja and Richard Bean (of Sapo fame).
