Boogaloo From Peru

The Vampi Soul label, home of many excellent reissues from Africa and Latin America, has put out "Gozalo", a four part series of CDs featuring 1960s Peruvian boogaloo and big band tunes. "Four volumes", I can hear you ask yourselves, "surely one would do?". Well, judging by the first volume - the only one I have heard so far - you would be wrong. Wrap your listening ears around these two gems.

"Push Push Push" - Charlie Palomares y Su Yuboney

"Baby Boogaloo" - Nilo Espinosa y Orquestra

It appears Ringo was not an enthusiast.
