Trini Lopez - The Blizzard Song - FRESCA (1967 Promo)

Trini Lopez 1967 Promotional Record for Coca Cola distributors, given away if you bought a case of Fresca. My mom bought the case of Fresca when I was kid (yes way back in 1967 LOL) and gave me the record and of course I played the heck out of it. There are actually 4 Trini songs on the record (If I Had a Hammer, America, Kansas City and The Blizzard Song), but this promo song for Fresca is not often heard; however, if you search the web there are several sites where you can download the .mp3 of it for free, as I believe it's public domain today. My copy of the record is almost unplayable now, as I played it grey. The song is very typical 60's-a-Go-Go and quite fun to listen to. I took the liberty of adding a few fun graphics while making the vid format. The 2 pics show the front and back covers of the record sleeve. Hope you enjoy! And I'd also like to say thank you to Trini Lopez for all his music he gave the world. I think he is somewhat underappreciated. He really had a neat sound back in the day!
