Yolocamba Ita (sometimes known as Yolocamba I Ta) was an El Salvadorian folk group formed in 1975 by brothers Roberto and Franklin Quezada. The word Yolocamba I ta has its origin from two native languages from Central America, the Chorti and the Lenca now disappeared from El Salvador but still spoken in some native communities in Central America from the South East and South West of Honduras and South East of Guatemala. Yolocamba I Ta might mean “The Melancholy of the People” or “The Rebellion of a Crop”. 
== Links To Peel ==
Peel played a track from the group on 27 November 1989 after reading an upsetting letter from a listener called Darryl who worked in El Salvador a year before, who had friends murdered by the El Salvador government. Darryl loaned the LP of Yolocamba Ita to Peel and asked him to play a track from it to dedicate to his friends who were killed. At the end of the record, Peel mentioned that the father and brother of two members of the band were killed by government forces, while the album was being made.
