Review by zakyabdul goodboy

Greatest Hits by Traffic Sound is a compilation album that showcases the best of the Peruvian rock band's music. The album features a unique blend of psychedelic rock, Latin rhythms, and Andean folk music, which sets it apart from other rock albums of its time.

The album includes some of Traffic Sound's most popular tracks, such as "Meshkalina," "La Camita," and "Yesterday's Game." These songs are characterized by their catchy melodies and intricate guitar riffs, which make them stand out from the rest of the album.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Virgin," which features a haunting melody and soulful vocals. The song's lyrics are inspired by traditional Andean folklore, and its use of indigenous instruments gives it an authentic feel.

About Traffic Sound

Psychedelic and Prog Rock band from Peru. Traffic Sound was a Peruvian rock band founded in 1967 by (vocals), (rhythm guitar), (sax), (Willy "Wilito" Barclay) (lead guitar), (bass) and (Luis "Lucho" Nevares) (drums). Freddy and Manuel had met in school and played in Los Hang Ten's. Freddy and his older brother Jose originally thought of founding "Traffic Sound". The name was chosen because of their penchant for a traffic light, placed as a souvenir in the attic of the Rizo-Patróns house, where they held their practices, after a wild night in Lima. After a year of continued rehearsals and private shows they tried their luck at Peruvian psychedelic emporium The Tiffany with great success and recorded his first album "A Bailar Go Go" in 1968 with label MAG. It contained versions of songs by The Doors, Cream, Jimi Hendrix, Iron Butterfly and The Animals. In later albums they included their own music with a fusion of Andean and Afro-Latin sounds. They held gigs in Peru, Chile, Argentina and Brazil. Their second album "Virgin" (1969), all original material, catapulted them to legendary status especially because it contains the absolute icon of Peruvian Psychedelia, "Meshkalina". In 1970 they recorded another LP named "Traffic Sound
