Among its protagonists were two musicians, Víctor Ramírez and Maximiliano Chávez, who, with their psychedelic guitars, Fender amplifiers, and wah-wah pedals, defined not only their own sound but also shaped the musical identity of the region.\u003cbr\u003e     The two guitarists added a few remarkable percussionists to the lineup and formed Los Orientales. Their debut single recorded in 1970, \"Lobos Al Escape,” reached the very top of the Peruvian charts, catapulting the band to national fame and spreading their electrifying cumbia throughout the country. Despite this early success, internal tensions led to a split between Víctor and Maximiliano, resulting in two rival groups with the exact same name.\u003cbr\u003e     Seeking wider recognition, Los Orientales de Paramonga of Víctor Ramírez - the band featured in this project — traveled to Lima and signed with Sono Radio, the country’s leading label. Under the direction of Argentine producer Enrique Lynch, they recorded a series of successful singles before releasing their debut album, \"Con Sabor Tropical,\" in 1972. Blending cumbia with guaracha, salsa, and guaguancó, the band gained national acclaim and expanded their audience through relentless touring.\u003cbr\u003e     Known for their electrifying live performances — often playing multiple venues in a single night — they eventually won over audiences in the capital and aimed to rival top tropical acts of the era. By the mid-1970s, after several releases, Ramírez embraced emerging styles such as chicha and experimented across genres.\u003cbr\u003e     The selection of 25 songs featured on this compilation, all recorded between 1972 and 1976, offer a complete journey through the sound and spirit of Los Orientales de Paramonga at their peak, who helped shape modern cumbia while never forgetting their roots. \u003c\/p\u003e\n     includes; \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSan Patricio \u003cbr\u003eBuscando le Zorra \u003cbr\u003eChiquilla ed Onda \u003cbr\u003eBallendo con Betty \u003cbr\u003eGuejira Oriental \u003cbr\u003eA-Chi-Li-Pu \u003cbr\u003eViajando con un Loco \u003cbr\u003eEl Guarda Caballos \u003cbr\u003eEl Monito y la Jirafa \u003cbr\u003eSiempre Contagiando \u003cbr\u003eEl Botecito \u003cbr\u003ePaseando ed el Bosque \u003cbr\u003eEl Metiche \u003cbr\u003eEl Romantico \u003cbr\u003eMi Guajira te Llamna \u003cbr\u003eGuejira Caliente \u003cbr\u003eSapos Al Agua \u003cbr\u003eMe Voy Pa, La Montana \u003cbr\u003eEl Hombre Lobo \u003cbr\u003eLa Ronda de los Enanos \u003cbr\u003eTuco y Tico \u003cbr\u003eOnda Tropical \u003cbr\u003eA La Playa Me Foy Cantando \u003cbr\u003eLa Chica Del Bikini Rojo \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNEW SEALED \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e2 LP set in a thick gatefold jacket w\/ Download \u0026amp; a booklet with biography, interviews and pictures\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"RedEye","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48994764488955,"sku":null,"price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0807\/4553\/files\/201375119586.jpg?v=1781931411","url":"https:\/\/orbitrecords.com\/products\/los-orientales-de-paramonga-1972-1976-2-lps","provider":"Orbit Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
