Digitally remastered and expanded edition of this classic 1969 South American Psychedelic freakbeat album recorded by Peruvian band the (St. Thomas) Pepper Smelter. St. Thomas Pepper Smelter was formed by Gerardo Manuel Rojas on vocals and tambourine, Beto Tataje on rhythm guitar and lead guitar, Juan Carlos Barreda on bass and vocals, Carlos Manuel Barreda on drums and backing vocals (all from the famous group Los Shains), and Freddy Macedo on keyboards. The band's music could be described as freak beat; in many ways, it is a preview of the Garage/Surf style of Los Shain's, heading towards the Heavy Psychedelic Rock of Gerardo Manuel & El Humo. This fully licensed, hand-numbered, limited edition CD release comes in a mini-LP sleeve replica of the original album art; it also comes with a replica of an original poster; a replica of an original color photo of the band. More importantly, it includes three previously unreleased bonus tracks exclusive to this edition.
