Kami nApo Muna

Kami nAPO Muna the album.Is one of the most popular album lead by many Filipino bands and other famous artist. Most of the song are originally created and sang by APO Hiking Society now its been revived by many popular artist today. It was a great tribute to them and became one of the foundation of music industry.

The APO Hiking Society first gained recognition in 1973 when they gave a farewell concert at the plush Meralco Auditorium (now Meralco Theater) in Pasig City, Metro Manila. Just out of college, the group was the talk of the Ateneo University and adjoining campuses for their music and humor.

It was only when two of its four members were about to retire from the field of amateur music, however, that the APO, then known as the Apolinario Mabini Hiking Society, finally had a city-wide audience. One of them was scheduled to leave for Turkey as an exchange student. The other had a position waiting for him in his father's advertising firm.

Why a talented young man of 21 would want to go to Turkey, every young man in the early seventies would probably understand. But what the APO could not understand was their fourth member's decision to leave the irresponsibility of being unemployed to join the ranks of the corporate world.

The trip to Turkey did not materialize and the APO, now a tentative trio, pushed on steadily towards fame and fortune.

Looking back, the APO members Danny Javier, Boboy Garrovillo, and Jim Paredes do not regret never having been regular wage earners. Their farewell concert, which had SRO audiences for two stormy nights, not unexpectedly became a hit record the following year.
