Moved by the terrible earthquake that devastated Managua on 23 December 1972, Nicaraguan Alfonso Noel Lovo recorded his first album in New Orleans the following year. Accompanied by local players and musicians from Nicaragua, Colombia and Panama, Lovo laid down an astounding mix of psychedelic rock, mazurka, jazz, Louisiana blues and African folk.
