2023 repress. Vampisoul present a first time reissue of
Los Kintos
' self-titled album, originally released in 1970. In the late sixties, a generation of young Peruvian musicians, who were fans of tropical sounds, chose Cuban rhythms over the onslaught of boogaloo and Colombian cumbia. This musical movement attracted a legion of young followers, mostly from popular districts of Lima. In 1969, percussionist
Domingo Guzmán Villanueva
was commissioned by the MAG record label to get together a group to revive Cuban musical tradition. To lead the project he recruited,
Francisco "Pancho" Acosta
, founder and guitarist of the
Compay Quinto
. The new group was baptized Los Kintos, in a nod to their desire to carry on playing in the Compay Quinto style. The link between the two groups appears on this first album, as the group's name is written in two different ways: Los Kintos, on the front cover; and
Los Quintos
, on the back. Recordings began in 1969 and included the stunning "Descarga Kinto",
Richie Ray
and
Bobby Cruz
's original "Pancho Cristal" -- renamed here "Pancho Guzmán" -- and Cuban classics from the repertoire of the historic
Trio Matamoros
like "Lágrimas Negras" or "Mentiras", all with lead vocals by
Kiko Fuentes
. The success of their concerts would take them on tours across the country, always recognized as outstanding figures of Cuban music in Peru. This reissue brings back an album that marked a milestone in the history of Peruvian tropical music and revives the fame of the group's legendary live performances.
