Editor's note

Flans, the Mexican trio that defined 1980s pop.

A trio from Mexico City whose catchy songs and bold image made them a pop fixture in the late '80s.

If you want to hear what Flans sounded like, start with "Alma Gemela" or "Físico." They're both clean, catchy pop songs from that era.

Flans mattered because they wrote songs that stuck. "Alma Gemela" is a perfect example, a straightforward pop tune that became one of their signatures. They also weren't afraid to stir things up, like when they posed nude for a magazine cover in 1988 and got some pushback for it.

They started in Mexico City in the 1980s, with Ilse Olivo, Ivonne Guevara, and Mimi Derbez. Their debut album "Las Mil y Una Noches" came out in 1985, and they kept putting out records like "Luz y Sombra" and "Alma Gemela" through the late '80s.

Archive material and source history

Flans formed in Mexico City in the 1980s when Ilse Olivo, Ivonne Guevara, and Mimi Derbez came together. Their debut album "Las Mil y Una Noches" came out in 1985 and found an audience quickly, with songs like the title track and "No Controles" getting attention.

They followed that with albums like "Luz y Sombra" in 1986 and "Alma Gemela" in 1987. The title track from that latter album, "Alma Gemela," became one of their better-known songs, along with others like "Físico" and "Cara O Cruz."

In 1988, the trio posed nude for a magazine cover, which drew criticism from some conservative groups at the time. They kept recording into the early 1990s, putting out a compilation called "Grandes Éxitos" in 1991.
