Caramba
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the Swedish music group. For the Spanish phrase, see ¡Ay, caramba!.
Caramba was a Swedish music group. It released one self-titled album in 1981. The album is chiefly notable because it is recorded entirely in non-existent language. However, songs which imitate certain regional styles of music generally imitate the phonemic structure of languages from the appropriate regions. It was produced by Ted Gardestad and by Michael B. Tretow, who is most famous for producing ABBA's records.
