GRUPO AMIGOS
It happened at the beginning of 1970, that a group of friends in Lima made a band in a way to create some music influenced by George Harrison, Wings, Badfinger and other Apple label bands. These friends were Simón Ames (guitar), Andrés da Ros (guitar, vocals), Edmundo Delgado (guitar, vocals) and Jorge Vasquez (drums), they start to compose some original songs under the name: Grupo Amigos (Friends).
It was around 1973 that these musicians decided that its time to record their own songs, they chose the MAG label, since their friend Saúl Cornejo—guitar player from We all Together and Laghonia—worked as a sound engineer for that label. As they felt that Jorge Vasquez wasn’t a good drummer, they invited Manuel Cornejo—-Saul´s brother—to be part of the band.
First they record the single ¨Dirty Girl¨ / ¨Everybody is Free,¨ pressed as a beautiful blue sky vinyl 7¨. A second single ¨Looking for a home¨/ ¨Atardecer de verano¨ (Summer Sunset) was also pressed in 1973. They got some reviews in Peruvian newspapers, so was a good time to press the album. This LP with ten songs, including their second single, was released under the name ¨Paloma mensajera¨ in 1973. It was a very small pressing, which is why it is difficult to find the original vinyl today.
The group played for a few years together with Saúl Conejo (piano) and Manuel Cornejo (drums); they used to share stages with bands like Fragil and You. The group still plays until today, making a tribute concert to John Lennon and George Harrison every 8th, 9th of December.
