Los Saicos - 1964-1966 Peru

A friend turned me onto Los Saicos playing just this one song, DemoliciĆ³n.


Later, I went out and found their album, which has been remastered in 2006 by Repsychled Records.  Some great, raw sounds.  Next up, I´m off to try to find the 2009 documentary about the band, Saicomania.  Hector Chavez, producer of the documentary, tells me I can find it in Quilca (Lima).

  1. You KNOW I'm a fool for odd documentaries. If you ever find it online, please share! (This song would make an awesome skateboard video soundtrack)

  4. Dick Dale surft guitar + gritty Sex Pistols vocals = I like it.
