1970's Italian (?) album of revolutionary songs dedicated to "Che" Guevara somehow connected with the ELN (Ejército de Liberación Nacional).

condition (record/cover): NM / VG+ (light general wear and light 1"x3" sticker removal residue inside gatefold)

Unipack gatefold sleeve.

"We will return to the mountains" was the vow of Inti Peredo, who took over Che Guevara's Bolivian guerrilla after Che's death in 1967, and this uncatalogued LP is a tribute compilation assembled around it: Nicolás Guillén reading his poem Che Comandante, Carlos Puebla, Silvio Rodríguez's Fusil contra fusil, Noel Nicola, Jean Ferrat's Les Guerrilleros, Ivan Della Mea's Creare uno, due, molti Vietnam, a Trío Los Guerrilleros, a French Che song by François Deguelt and, closing side two, the anthem of the Bolivian ELN played by a military band with the choir of Cuban radio.

The Della Mea track and the Italian typography point to an Italian solidarity pressing of around 1968-70, the kind of object that circulated through party sections and student groups rather than shops. No label, no date, matrix LD-COR. A document of the moment when Che was still a project rather than a T-shirt.
