The second Traffic Sound album, released in 1970 after their Latin rock masterpiece "Virgin", deserves to be considered one of the greatest recordings of its time, even internationally, as essential as the most hailed works of Cream, Caravan or Led Zeppelin that served as a bridge for rock music between the 60s and 70s. The band incorporates complex arrangements and long song structures with which they approach psychedelic and prog music. However, the immediacy of songs like 'Yesterday's Game', with a fierce and contagious guitar riff, or 'Chicama Way', a terrific anthem, clear any possible doubt about the sound principles of the band: hypnotic, groovy ROCK, in capital letters! The band's music was featured in season 3 of NARCOS. Presented in facsimile tri-fold sleeve and pressed on 180g vinyl. Peru enjoyed a thriving and exciting music scene since the mid-1960s.

However, the immediacy of songs like 'Yesterday's Game', with a fierce and contagious guitar riff, or 'Chicama Way', a terrific anthem, clear any possible doubt about the sound principles of the band: groovy ROCK, in capital letters!While tracks such as 'Those Days Have Gone' or 'America' show the friendliest yet psychedelic side of the group, 'Tibet's Suzettes', the opening song of the album, simultaneously introduces all the ingredients of the Traffic Sound recipe: hypnotic rhythms, untamed guitars and very skilled playing.Although some influences cannot be ignored, this second Traffic Sound album is huge and deserves to be considered one of the greatest recordings of its time, even internationally, as essential as the most hailed works of Cream, Caravan or Led Zeppelin that served as a bridge for rock music between the 60s and 70s.
