Peruvian Pleasure
Paraguaman | Vlan Glatten | 08/18/2003
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Finally, the Incas' leading position within Peruvian "high culture" is history. This compilation must be the foreseen return of the gods.However, if the track listing is correct, 13 songs are missing from the LP version, where the astonishing number of 35 tracks are available for the immense masses of Peruvian undergound fans. As far as I can see on the list here, not only the slightly boring songs are cruelly torn away (for they do exist, yes, but not in annoying proportions), but even the jewel of global rock history; los Saicos' brutal "Demolición", where a liking of blowing up train stations is screamingly confessed (in spanish), plus the hilarious "la Pitita" by Snacks, and "Te Amo" by Los Silvertons. Nevertheless, some goodies are obviously left, although those of you who are expecting strange, strange music will probably be a little disappointed. Most of the tracks are quite normal rock melodies, some are in english and some are even covers. Anyway, El Gran Finale, "Sonido Amazúnico" by los Mirlos, is doubtlessly worth purchasing the CD for if you do not already own the LP."
