    Los Felcas were one of the best bands to come out of Peru during the golden years of the cumbia and tropical sounds explosion. In Lima, founding member, guitarist Florentino "Tino" León, quickly joined the Peruvian cumbia tropical movement led by electric guitarists Enrique Delgado (Los Destellos) and Berardo Hernández "Manzanita.". This new style was soon practiced by other groups from Lima, such as Los Ecos, Los Beta 5, Los Diablos Rojos, and, a bit later, by bands from the rest of the country. This movement became a massive phenomenon.

    Nelson Ferreyra and the multifaceted singer Pablo Villanueva Branda "Melcochita", who had become fans, introduced them to the MAG record label. In mid-1973, they recorded their first 45 RPM singles, with "Sabor a Felcas" being their most popular release. They recorded several albums during the late '70s and '80s, mostly on MAG: "La Blanquiñosa," "Tu bello cuerpo," "La cusqueñita" and "Manzanita coloradita." In the early 1990s, chicha music became popular in Argentina, especially in the north, where "Boquita perfumada" by Los Felcas was a hit.

    This compilation brings together their finest recordings, taking from albums and obscure 45s, blending a wide range of influences - from psychedelic vibes to rhythms closer to guaracha and chicha - and now being reissued for the first time.
