Traffic Sound - Virgin (1970 peru, amazing rough psych rock)



In January 1970, Traffic Sound’s second album, "Virgin" appeared on the market. It was the first Peruvian rock album with 100% original tunes. The album contains the hit single 'Meshkalina', a fusion of Latin rhythms, power rock and hippie lyrics; it also includes beautiful acoustic tracks: 'Virgin', 'Simple' and 'Last song,' and progressive rock tracks like 'Yellow sea days' and 'Jews caboose.'

The uniqueness of Traffic Sound made them very special – although influenced by bands like the Animals, Iron Butterfly, Jimi Hendrix Experience and Pink Floyd, they added their own original touches and created something new.
