Latin Psych

So this past weekend I picked up a record that totally blew my mind.
It got me so sonically excited that I couldn't remember a LP that I heard from end2end that was this amazing.
Juan Carlos Caceres "Malon". It's the perfect blend of latin, soul, psychfuzz, funk, jazz, and rock. Every track is a killer.
After listening to it I expected the dude to charge me mad loot, but it was less than $40 US. Don't know if this is a fluke or what it goes for. I was willing to pay much much more for it. Anyway this sub-genre really does it for me right now.
Does anybody have any other "Latin Psych" LP's that would fall into this category that one could recommend to look for?
I know you guys have some ish. Aleit or KL or Cool Chris or Dante? Discuss.

and the Modulo 5 LP that I posted a pic of a while back but can't find.
I picked up a very nice 45 by Los Cometas[/b] on DGA about a month ago over at the Groove Merchant. Really really dope fuzzed out El Salvadorian psyche shit. Not sure if they ever released an LP though.

www.jetsetrecords.net has a copy for sale. I recommend people with money to buy it right now. You will be happy.
Some Peruvian bands to check out for in the Caceres vein:
Black Sugar
We All Together
Telegraph Ave
Traffic Sounds
Cacique
Gerardo Manuel y El Humo
Laghonia
Some Argentinian bands:
Almendra
La Barra de Chocolate
Kano y los Bulldogs
Los Jaivas
Los Gatos
Some Puerto Rican bands:
Bandolero
Challengers
Sonset
Space
Some of these are more straight ahead psych, or not psych at all, but good nonetheless. Happy hunting! Please let me know if you find any of these.
Says its a French record and genre = EURO GROOVE ????
Heard some of that Almendra a while back, good dusted guitar psych (really, a lot of the stuff dudes on here like and call 'psych' would be laughable to actual psych heads... for one thing horns usual render something too commercial to qualify)
Or a string. A string pretty much eliminates most lp's in psych heads opinions
MAAAYAAN?????????
That sample is not a good representation of the rest of the LP. It gets fuzzy like a sweater.
same with laghonia
peru is where its at for psych forsure
YO....THIS LP IS
I've been after this for a LOOOONG time.
Here are a few...These are NOT psych. More like fuzzy & Funky latin rock.
not psych...
this has a dope version of "Crumbs off the Table" plus 3/4 other heavy fuzz workouts. will post audio later.
The Ladies W.C. reissue is also worth tracking down.
