Rarely finding the Spanish involved in rise of 60's teenage faction (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

seldom

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'rarely' is the definition.
('seldom' can be a synonym of 'rarely')

'the spanish involved in rise of 60's teenage faction' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'of' could be 'o' and 'o' is located in the answer.
'60's' could be 's' and 's' is located in the answer.
'the spanish' could be 'el' and 'el' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'finding' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
