WELCOME TO RAYBRAZEN.COM -- Los Dug Dug's, the Godz, Avandaro, TV Toy


RAY BRAZEN made history in 1997 with the first website devoted to a classic Mexican rock band, inspiring others to open the files on a forgotten period in Mexican rock history. Since then, Ray has continued to champion the cause of rescuing rock & roll's lost histories!

proudly presents...


El Mundo Loco De Los Dug Dug's AVANDARO! First Church of the Godz The TV Toy Channel

EL MUNDO LOCO DE LOS DUG DUG'S -- The site that started it all! This groundbreaking tribute to a very legendary Mexican rock band launched a south-of-the-border rock & roll revolution on the web!

AVANDARO -- The revolution gathered more steam with this revealing look at the "Mexican Woodstock," the Avandaro rock festival of 1971!

THE FIRST CHURCH OF THE GODZ -- The site that gives you ESP! This shrine to New York's experimental pranksters of the 1960s actually reunited the three surviving members!

THE TV TOY CHANNEL -- The channel more of you should be watching! This pioneering New Jersey band fused progressive with punk to form a unique style not heard before or since!
