Didn't he do the theme song to "Chico and the Man"? Not that he should be judged by that song and Feliz Navaidad Ralph Be at one with the universe. If you can't do that, at least be at one with your guitar. |

true story.........the first time our local radio station played joses' version of 'light my fire' the DJ stopped it in the middle of the song and all you could hear was him breaking it into little pieces. — |

did you notice him drop his pick at about 1:06? he carries on without it quite well... Jose Feliciano is cool...I dig his version of "Light My Fire, LIght MY Fire, Light MY Fire!" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcqCOlJkN8Q check out his version of Maleguena: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFvqmIi9Ymc&feature=related he even gets into a little golpe action at the end... |

Oh, I'm not knocking "Feliz Navidad", but I don't think you could call it typical of his work. —Ralph Be at one with the universe. If you can't do that, at least be at one with your guitar. |

Thanks to all the surf bands, past and present. And thanks to all the fans who care about and keep surf music alive.
Here's a very cool video of Jose Feliciano playing Flight of the Bumble Bee, He's an amazing guitar player and he's blind. In case your not sure who this guy is, he's the dude whose famous for that tune "Feliz Navidad". Check out the dog chillin' beside him 
wow really, what a dick I guess he really hated his version of "Light My Fire" 
Pretty cool, I guess he always had his dog with him every time he performed. The dog is just Chillin'
.... but the more i heard it the more i liked it.
