Rey Azucar is the name of ninth studio album released on 1995 by Argentine band Los Fabulosos Cadillacs. It was produced by Tina Weymouth and Chris Frantz of Talking Heads, and contained guest appearances from punk icons Mick Jones of The Clash (on "Mal Bicho") and Blondie's Debbie Harry (on a reggae cover of "Strawberry Fields Forever," sung in Spanish), as well as reggae star Big Youth on several tracks. The song titled "Las venas abiertas de América Latina" (Open Veins of Latin America) was inspired by the Eduardo Galeano's book of the same title.
