In 1968, The Silver Thunders enjoyed a good reputation within the Bogotá rock circuit... Today, none of the three living members of the band remembers where they got the money from to invest in the recording, but they got together three or four hours a week over several months in 1968 at the studio Suramericana de Grabaciones. The details of the sessions are hazy and nobody knows who sat behind the mixing desk. However, Jorge López (lead guitar) and Orlando Córdoba (bass guitar) both say that the studio was uncomfortable and precarious. This didn't undermine the group's upbeat spirit. That's how things were back then: no editing tricks and no option of doing several takes, as reels of tape were very expensive. The Silver Thunders, with Edgardo Córdoba (rhythm guitar) and Carlos Cardona (drums) completing the line-up, recorded live a repertoire influenced by Mersey beat and British R&B, American surf and garage, the psychedelia of The Beatles and a dash of African pop. This is conveyed in the raw cover versions of 'And Your Bird Can Sing', 'Got To Get You Into My Life' and 'A Day In The Life' by the Liverpool four; 'Mary, Mary' by The Monkees; 'Wild Thing' by The Troggs; 'Wild Angels', taken from the soundtrack of the film of the same name; 'Summer In The City' by The Lovin' Spoonful, plus a surprising cover of 'Pata Pata' by the South African artist Miriam Makeba. Although the presence of The Beatles predominates, the band delves deep into style of The Ventures in 'Good Thing' and an exquisite and naive cover version of 'Strawberry Fields Forever' after the instrumental track that Don Wilson and Bob Bogle's combo made famous in 1967. The recording also includes 'Alma Agobiada', an original song by Carlos 'Caniche' Cardona and the only remaining example of The Silver Thunders' own repertoire... A couple of years later, Jorge López went off to finish his studies and Carlos Cardona joined the ranks of Los Flippers. The Córdoba twins carried on playing, accompanied by Hernando Orjuela on keyboards and Eduardo Acevedo on drums. They fell under the influence of the mysticism of the guru Maharishi Mahesh Yogui. At the end of the decade, the four Silver Thunders became Los Yoguis and recorded 'Birthday' and 'Revolution' by The Beatles at the Ingeson studios, as well as 'Shape Of Things To Come' and 'Listen To The Music', both from the soundtrack of the film Wild In The Streets... -Luis Daniel Vega

Tasty good quality matcha
Flavor Name: All Purpose Culinary Grade Matcha
Great tasting matcha! I usually order matcha from the famous us coffee shop but this one tastes even better and is wayy cheaper (vs paying per cup). I can make frozen matcha drinks or have it with a sweetener, ice and milk (chef's kiss). I also feel good knowing that it has great health benefits and I like the fact that it doesn't come sweetened so I can add berries or a sweetener. It's not too bitter like some other matchas are and it gives that earthy taste you look for in matcha. Very delicious 10/10.

Yum!
Flavor Name: All Purpose Culinary Grade Matcha
I have zero complaints, the size is ideal considering you don’t need very much for a drink and the flavor is amazing and exactly what I expected, I prefer this to Starbucks as I feel it is a bit sweeter! Blends beautifully great quality and honestly on the cheaper size of what I’ve seen! Good value

Can of marketing containing disappointment
Flavor Name: All Purpose Culinary Grade Matcha
When I received this I noticed the made in China label and tried to initiate a return. This product does not allow return, even if unopened. So I went ahead and opened this can of disappointment. Pale, flavorless with a weird flavor. I suppose I could try using it as a fabric dye...
