Peru is a planet in Galaxy NL



Continents was the third lp recorded by Peru. Released in 1983 it produced two singles, Oriental in '85 and Africa in '86. Instrumentation is all electronic and features a long list of Roland synthesizers, voco-strings and rhythm composers, Linn drum computers, and Simmons drums.

I'm glad Google Reader recommended your blog to me. I've never heard Peru but since I own Rob Papens Predator I had to check this out.
Thanks for taking the time to rip all the vinyls and covers for us!

I have been restored to old "Schwingungen" times (WDR2 german radio in the 80s / 90s).

There are such beautiful music that you listen to often enough.

Thank you for these beautiful pieces.
