St. Thomas Pepper Smelter – Soul & Pepper (1969) | Peru Psych | Full Album Rip

This is Soul & Pepper — the 1969 album by The (St. Thomas) Pepper Smelter, released on Virrey Records (DVS 689) in Peru. A fuzz-drenched, garage-psych obscurity, this LP delivers raw, English-language covers of tracks by Iron Butterfly, Jimi Hendrix, Cream, and more — reimagined with distorted guitars, swirling organ, and a lo-fi Peruvian twist. 🎧 This vinyl rip comes from my personal collection of rare Peruvian psych and garage records. 💿 My copy isn’t in the best shape — surface noise and a little wear — so I’m always on the hunt for an upgrade. If you’ve got a cleaner copy, hit me up. 📷 Follow me on Instagram for more vinyl and music content: https://www.instagram.com/vinyl_piper/ Led by keyboardist Pax Roberto Rivera, this short-lived studio project turns familiar late-'60s rock standards into unpredictable, fuzzy freakouts. There’s plenty of wild wah guitar, gritty vocals, and raw Latin energy across both originals and covers. It’s unpolished in the best way — garage rock as it should be. If you're into The Electric Prunes, Traffic Sound, or want to hear Hendrix, Cream, and Iron Butterfly with a Peruvian garage psych edge — this is essential listening. 🎧 My favorite track on this one is “Hey Joe” — fuzzed-out, tense, and totally unhinged. 💿 Tracklist: 00:00 In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida 05:02 Pepper's Boogaloo (El Boogaloo De La Pimienta) 08:03 Strange Brew (Extraño Brebaje) 10:39 Words Of Pain (Palabras De Dolor) 13:23 People (La Gente) 16:11 Heart Teaser (Corazón Embromado) 19:48 Can You See Me?
