I was around 10 years old when I first heard the Latinos, I was very impressed and enjoyed listening to the songs. They ministered to me through songs. I became a musician because of the Latinos. I am now a keyboard player myself and do studio work and produce, and write songs. I am very grateful that the Latinos were a great influence in my music career. May God Continue to bless you guys and may HE give you the desires of your heart's .

Wow, what a blessing to see all the requests for a Latino Reunion Tour! I was invited by my friend Kenny Brown to meet the band. I have fond memories meeting the band for the first time practicing in my friend Charlie Ferchu's (Resounding Joy) garage before a concert in San Jose. About a year later seeing them again in Phoenix (while serving in the USAF) and being totally blown away. The reason I stumbled on this site was that I was just listening to a cassette by the Latinos called "Stormy Weather" and wanted to know if they are still together serving the Lord. I also noticed a familiar name from one of the people posting. I used to go to Gil Ybarra's fellowhip while in Tolleson (Phoenix area). I'd like to hook up with you Paster Gil!I hope and pray that the reunion concerts take place and that lives be transformed by the Holy Spirit.
Ronnie, Harold and Brian, let me know if I can help out in any way. God Bless you!

I saw the Latinos in Chama, New Mexico back in the 80's. They were the best church youth service I have ever been to. I was only 12 back then. If someone can help me out with getting a copy of their music, I would greatly appreciate it.

I can't belive that after 29 years, People are still talking about this album. The Latinos came to our church ( Damascus Christian Church ) Queens NY when the album first came out. My favorite songs are, It Must Be Love, Brian's Dead, and Champions. Brian Lucas was magnificent. he inspired me to continue playing the piano and form my own band in my church. If anyone out there knows where I can gete a copy of this album, please contact me at niko-001@live.com

Thank God that your CD can be purchased. My husband never heard of you until I played "what will you do when the party's over" on youtube. He asked if we could get it and I told him that it was the question of the century. Thanks for your passion and dedication to the Kingdom. I grew up loving your music. My grandfather, Pastor Ben DeLaCruz who went to be with the Lord, would have the Latinos at his church and home. You all are awesome, I even have pics of Harold and Ronnie in Defiance, Ohio. May opens Heavens be over you and your families.

Hey Ronnie I think you should get together with the band called SALVADOR and re vamp your songs ,and have them tour with you IF your planning to tour , I would be a great combination, and revive your songs for new born again believers. You need to start at San Antonio , San Diego, L.A. and Bakersfield, and Visalia, and San Jose

I am totally blown away by the fact that there are people still out there interested in the music of the Latinos. It was an honor to be a part of a band that was really about ministry and reaching the lost for Christ. That is and will continue to be my passion. For those interested, I do have CD copies ripped from the vinyl recording of It Must Be Love available for purchase. The quality is not great but it's not bad. Anyone wanting it can order it for $10 plus $1 for shipping from: Velasquez Group Productions 3879 E. 120th Ave. Denver, CO 80233-1658
Blessings, Harold Velasquez

God Bless you and yours. I have to add myself to the large list of people touched by your ministry. (I remember you playing live in Union Square in NYC one summer. ) I was deeply touched by your annointed music. It is as relevant today as it was then. I would also love to get a copy of your music and I know many who would also. Any possibility someone would have the original tracks?
God bless you all and keep in the faith.

Is there any way you could sell the albums on iTunes. The albums would sell like crazy. If the group is interested in recording let me know. I have a friend who has a recording studio, and the prices can't be beat. My friend used to own the recording studio but was gunned down back in June. His wife is trying to keep the studio open. Would love to see the Latinos record there. If interested please email me: mike.lozano@gmail.com

This is great news I have been looking for a copy for years. Apparently I am not the only one. It's been over 20 years and people are still asking and begging for a copy of this album. God used you all to BLESS a generation that has not forgotton the music or the Blessing. I have wanted my son to hear your songs for the longest time. Hope i am not too late do you still have copies left?

Harold,
You probably don't remember me. But my mother Juanita Armstrong, her sisters Carol Jean and Joan and I loved your group and the Four Galileans. We went to hear your groups sing anytime you came to the Memphis area.Your group even stayed in our home once. I'm praying God will bless you & your families. Continue to be use of God.
