This vinyl LP contains the “Carinito” album by Sunny & the Sunliners issued by Key-Loc Records during the late 1960s. Each side of the LP contains six songs that were produced by Rudy Guerra. Sunny and the Sunliners was a Chicano group from San Antonio that specialized in Tejano songs. Tejano music became increasingly popular in Texas around 1965. Lead singer Sunny Ozuna teamed with business manager Johnny Zaragosa to form Key-Loc Records and distribute Tejano music around the southwest United States.
