Binding: Audio CDEAN: 0881626907924 Label: Barbes Manufacturer: Barbes MPN: 16 Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Barbes Release Date: September 25, 2007 Studio: Barbes Editorial Review: Product Description: 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. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - love this cdI love classic Cumbia, and I love classic Garage rock. SO Im thrilled to discover this intersection of styles. THe peruvian folk meoldies are an added bonus. Candy! Thanks to whoever hunted down this style. It's great listening music and great dance music. highly recommended Rating:  - The original is the bestThis CD has an infectious quirky sound. Love it. The kind of music you want at a party Rating:  - No CDI received a CD case that had been shrink-wrapped in plastic, but no CD. Very annoying. Rating: - Electric and fun.This mixture of old and new themes in an upbeat salsa Peruvian style all its own. Rating: - hot latin sounds!This is a great set of songs perfect for listening to while cooking in the kitchen: spatula in one hand, margarita in the other and the urge to dance while you sautee. |
