interesting little couplet of 45's - have to admit the "ace of spades" cover was my pick of the bunch (moscow being corny but fun & "cadena perpetua" reminding me too much of early "the Cure" not a bad thing - just don't need it. Still happy to hear them - thanks!! (pop over to my new blog http://mylifesajigsaw.blogspot.com/
I think there will be something you may like.
Miraflores is indeed right on the border of Lima. It's a comparatively well to do suburb, about the only place in the country at the time one could expect to find young people into modern rock who could also afford instruments and studio time.
Great blog, thanks for the music!
There are 2 different bands here. Ali Baba's group is a band specialized in covers. Cadena Perpetua here sounds as a pop rock band, but they had some songs a little bit oriented to the post punk (in the last years 1989, 1990,...). The vocalist of Cadena Perpetua was José Arbulú, later in one of the most important peruvian bands: Cementerio Club.
Yes, this cheesy song Moscu is another cover from a germany band called Dschinghis Khan from Eurovision festival!!! It was the "summer song", in Spain in 1980 too, covered by another specialist in these kind of songs called "Georgie Dann". Definitively, i prever the Ace Of Spades cover!!
