2022 repress, originally released in 2007. After a very long time researching the archives of the most important record labels of Peru, we present volume one of Gozalo! ("enjoy it!") a collection of this country's best artists during the '60s and '70s. Peru, surely not a heavyweight champion of well-known music, at least in Europe or North America, was the home to so many exciting bands and artists. Names like Charlie Palomares, Mario Allison, Lucho Macedo, Al Valdez, Ñico Estrada, Los Hiton's and many more, who were experimenting with "foreign" sounds and rhythms such as jazz, pop, boogaloo and soul, and giving them their very own unique Peruvian flavor. Complete with very detailed and explanatory liner notes and cover art by Pablo Iglesias (from the mandatory Latin art book Cocinando!).
