--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Artist: Various Album: We Are Not Together Released: 2008 Repsychled/Lion (cd 1010 (lion 616)) Genre: psychedelia
Groovy Peruvian psychedelia from the musicians that went on to be We All Together, plus some fellow travellers in the Lima scene -- work recorded from the late 60s through the early part of the 70s -- featuring sunny, catchy tunes that for the most part predate the We All Together era proper! We Are Not Together features material credited to Carlos Guerrero & Nilo Espinosa, Monik, Illicit, Cerro Verde, Laghonia and Smog -- each track featuring members of We All Together -- with those wonderful, Beatles inspired vocal harmonies so prevalent to the We All Together sound -- and overall a very nice mix of western psychedelic tunefulness, the melodicism of the Brit scene, and some more tropical South American grooves! Tracks include a bongo and flute accented take on "Light My Fire" by Carlos Guerro & Nilo Espinosa Orquestra, "Suavecito" by Beto Villena & We All Together, "Thank You", "Maybe I Know" and more by Monik, "We Wish To Be Listened" and "Realize" Illicit, "Nunca Seas Triste" and "Estoy Brillianado" by FE 59, "Guess I'm Going Away", "I Lost A Game" and more by Cerro Verde, "Time For The Blues" and "Wicked Man" by Smog and more -- plus 2 bonus tracks.
