The record
Title: Javier Solís – Sombras
Year/Genre: 1965, Latin/World
Matrix #: EX 5150
Condition: VG, sounds good with background noise; light marks
Cultural Facts:
-
This title shows up in 1965 trade listings while Solís was breaking big outside Mexico—US/LatAm distribution was part of his rapid international push.
-
Solís died in April 1966 from complications after gallbladder surgery, so this era is one of the last major LP cycles released during his lifetime.
-
The title song “Sombras” started as a tango (“Sombras Nada Más”) and became his signature; later covered across genres (Vicente Fernández, Rocío Dúrcal, Héctor Lavoe).
-
If they like José Alfredo Jiménez, Pedro Infante, or Trio Los Panchos, this sits in the same mid-century romantic tradition that blurred bolero and ranchera audiences.
Price Suggestions:
NM: $30–$40

This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
