From 1965 to 1967 in Barcelona could perfectly be playing 300 bands. On of them were The Finders, renamed later as Alex y los Finders. Listen this excellent cover of "Land of Thousand dances". "Land of a Thousand Dances" (or "Land of 1000 Dances") is a song written and first recorded by Chris Kenner in 1962. The song is famous for its "na na na na na" hook, which was added by Cannibal & the Headhunters in their version of the song in 1965, whose version peaked at number thirty. The song's best-known version was Wilson Pickett's 1966 recording on his album, which became an R&B #1 and his biggest ever pop hit. Some releases of the song credit Antoine "Fats" Domino as a co-author of the song with Kenner. Domino had agreed to record the song in exchange for half of the song's royalties.
Less known is the very good cover that The Walkers Bross. did in 1965.
