Los Apson

Lightning ride: /* Success */


'''Los Apson''' is a former Mexican [[rock-n-roll]] band whose Spanish covers of famous song classics launched it into stardom almost immediately.

== History ==
The band's history began in 1957 when the group was founded by Arturo Durazo, a guitarist and a rock-n-roll enthusiast who formed the band with his brother Francisco. Both of them had a relatively easy access to popular English hits of the time as they lived in the border town of Agua Prieta, Sonora. Originally named Los Apson Boys, they quickly shortened it to Los Apson, the band's name came from the first letters of the town, and the first three from the state. They were quickly joined by José Luis García and Tránsito Gámez along with Raúl Hernández Cota. Despite the town's preference for Ranchero music, they quickly gained a following which expanded beyond the borders of their small town.<ref>http://bit.ly/2GCrGI2>
