Music reviews of Roots of Chicha: Psychedelic Cumbias From Peru
Music Review: Great Chicha Music
Rating: 5 Stars
I bought this CD jointly with the Juaneco y Su Combo Masters ov Chicha Vol.1 CD and it has been the best purchase yet on Amazon. I would suggest that you buy Roots of Chicha and Juaneco y Su Combo Masters of Chicha Vol. 1 CD together for maximum enjoyment. The Roots of Chicha CD does have several tracks from the Masters of Chicha Vol. 1 CD, but it is great. In particular two tracks stand out for fantastic vibes and great surf guitar that is Sacalo, Sacalo and El Guapo both by Los Diablos Rojos one of the top Chicha bands in Peru. I would buy this CD again and would recommend it to Latin music lovers without reservation.
Description of Roots of Chicha: Psychedelic Cumbias From Peru
In the early 70 s a new sound grew out of the booming cities of the Peruvian Amazon. Chicha, as it came to be known, modeled itself on Colombian Cumbia music but replaced the accordion with surf guitars, and incorporated the psychedelic sounds of Farfisa organs and Moog synthesizers as well as Cuban Guajira,and the distinctive pentatonic scales of Andean melodies. Unlike other modern hybrids, such as Ska or Brazillian Tropicalia, the music never crossed international borders. This is the first ever Chicha compilation to be released outside of Peru.Psychedelic Rock CDs
