Originating from Lima, Peru - Sabor y Control has been holding the torch for classic salsa dura and descarga in their home country for the last 17+ years, churning out an unprecedented 7 studio albums and countless live shows and festivals. Led by saxophonist Bruno Macher and a talented orchestra of the highest order, the group maintains a steadfast dedication to the roots of the genre while maintaining a particular vision and style throughout their own original compositions. They have been a rare beacon of light for modern Salsa Peruana and salseros throughout South America. Now, they’ve teamed up with Brooklyn’s Names You Can Trust to produce their first ever vinyl release to showcase internationally. This pair of sure shot salsa bombas feature incredible arrangements & writing that are at once deep, uplifting and primed for the dancers. It’s a superb taster of tunes remixed and remastered exclusively for 7-inch vinyl play.
lyrics
Saco las armas voy a salir despacio,
mi AK-47 ocupa mucho espacio,
mi 9 mm ganó a mi 38,
disparo tras disparo voy y lo hago a mi antojo
Sicario, se que tu vida ha sido dificil,
Sicario, se que tu infancia no ha sido mejor,
Sicario, no todo es drogas, dinero y placeres,
Sicario, también existe otra cosa mejor,
Porque es más importante, la Familia y el código de Honor,
piensa dentro de unos años , si tu quieres , todo estará mejor
No quiero perder la razón, quisiera cambiar tu vida,
pero depende de ti que con razón y corazón nomás,
Puedas sobrevivir.
coro:
Sicario te va a llevar la vida,
no está perdida, no está perdida

Why do you love this album? Well, it is the quality of ALL the Analog Africa releases , the astonishing presentation- artwork, AWESOME booklets, the mastering, the music first of all and the feeling you connect with it and the artists involved. Due to not earning enough I changed from vinyl to CDs, but I am glad for the high quality downloads of the vinyl only releases that you are able to burn to disc. Together with a chosen few others AA is a greater than great label. Period. Markus Bader
I have to say that this one is one of the finest compilation I've ever seen. The story, the cover, the pictures, the booklet and of course the music! Just magic, like a time machine. fabmeyer
Utterly joyous music from Cape Verde in 1984, “Já Bô Corre D’Mim” combines highlife guitars with giddy tropical rhythms. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 8, 2021
