Listen to STILL DON'T (NOT YET) by La Revolucion De Emiliano Zapata.
La Revolución de Emiliano Zapata was a heavy rock group from Guadalajara. How dumb were they? Well, their biggest hit (locally and in Europe) was a turgid seven-and-a-half minute jam titled Nasty Sex. This was in 1970. (Their follow-up, and last hit, was called Sh*t City.)
Fortunately for you, we're featuring the b-side to their big hit, Still Don't (Not Yet). It's still big and dumb, but in a good way. Only three minutes long, it rides a fat bassline, it has a really tight breakdown leading into a satisfyingly skronky guitar solo. If it wasn't so stoned, it could be as funky as the Stones.
Oh, and Happy Birthday John!

And how do you keep finding these bands from spanish lands that sing in english?
You're welcome!
As for your question, I put in a decent amount of time before Christmas digging up blogs and things in this area, so 've got a good stockpile that's easy to replenish now
