In 1967, Disperú commissioned trumpeter \u003cb\u003eToño Reyes\u003c\/b\u003e to form a band he called \u003cb\u003eToño y sus Sicodélicos\u003c\/b\u003e. During the recording sessions for this album, they performed a series of songs that reflected the latest tropical music trends, in his inimitable style. Instrumentals such as \"Mr. Boogaloo\", \"El Guayacol\", \"La Anticuchera\", \"La Peinadora\", and \"La Fiesta es Mañana\" are versions that follow the lines traced by the Mexican composer and drummer Leo Acosta. In the early sixties, based in Los Angeles, Acosta played with the orchestras of \u003cb\u003eHarry James\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003eSammy Davis Jr\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003eTony Bennett\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003eHerb Alpert\u003c\/b\u003e, and \u003cb\u003eDámaso Pérez Prado\u003c\/b\u003e. Mid-decade, Acosta turned to the novel sounds of boogaloo, which immediately caught the attention of young South Americans. The song \"Borinque Bella\" is another cover version, originally recorded by \u003cb\u003eThe TNT Band\u003c\/b\u003e, based in New York. Another noteworthy influence on the album is the blind Venezuelan organist \u003cb\u003eTulio Enrique León\u003c\/b\u003e, who performed cumbias and guarachas enhanced by his Hammond organ, as is the case of \"Chin Chin\". Songs in vogue at the time complete the album. The best known is perhaps \"Es la lluvia que cae\", popularized in Spanish in 1967 by \u003cb\u003eLos Iracundos\u003c\/b\u003e. \"Tequila\" and \"No te bote\", by \u003cb\u003eThe Champs\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003eSonora Matancera\u003c\/b\u003e, respectively, were also classics on Lima's radio stations. \"Las hojas secas\", by the Mexicans \u003cb\u003eLos Zignos\u003c\/b\u003e, was so popular that it was even covered by Peruvian rock groups such as \u003cb\u003eLos Steivos\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003eLos 007\u003c\/b\u003e. The success reaped by Toño y sus Sicodélicos took them straight to another record company, and the group's records were also re-released in neighboring countries, always with striking psychedelic cover illustrations. First time reissue. Includes original striking psychedelic artwork and remastered sound.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Forced Exposure","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49608584921319,"sku":"VAMPI 296LP","price":46.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0094\/8718\/8015\/files\/Tono-Y-Sus-Sicodelicos-Mister-Boogaloo-New-Vinyl.jpg?v=1745595037","url":"https:\/\/www.sonicboommusic.com\/products\/tono-y-sus-sicodelicos-mister-boogaloo-new-vinyl","provider":"Sonic Boom Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
