Iquitos, one of Peru's most remote cities and the capital of its Amazon region, was the epicenter of the psychedelic cumbia movement. Groups like Los Playboys belong to that mysterious category of almost-forgotten bands. On Ranil's label, Producciones Llerena, they released a superb single -- now reissued here with their track "Play Boy," an instrumental bursting with all the essential ingredients of psychedelic cumbia. Vampisoul complete this single with another great band from Iquitos: Los Roger's. Their magnificent "Descarga Rogers," never before available on 45, is the opening track of their only album and dives deep into Cuban-influenced sounds, where the guitar shares the spotlight with powerful percussion and vocals.
