Global A Go-Go presents:
Like Eric Clapton but not a douche canoe
José Luis Carballo is one of the greatest rock ‘n’ roll guitarists you’ve never heard of. His compressed, piercing, fuzzed-out sound will be familiar to any fan of 60s and 70s classic rock, and his long, endlessly imaginative lead lines call to mind players like Duane Allman and Eric Clapton.
Carballo is from Lima, Peru and is one the people who shaped the sound known as chicha, or Peruvian psychedelic cumbia. The first of his bands to make an impact was Los Hijos Del Sol; he went on to form La Mermelada and Chacalón Y La Nueva Crema (the latter named for Clapton’s old band).
This week on Global A Go-Go (Sunday November 21, 1:00-3:00 PM on WRIR, for two weeks afterwards on the wrir.org archive player, check your local listings for airing on other radio stations, and any old time at my podcast site) you’ll hear music from throughout Carballo’s career, including a wonderful featured appearance on the new album by Money Chicha where he shows that he’s still got his chops.
Also this week: Jamaica’s rocksteady sound, Get In The Garage presents more of los nuggets (Spanish-language garage rock hits), Moonlight Benjamin’s new single, Afrobeat from Belgium and Switzerland, and new Igbo highlife by Oliver Nayoka.
