Lynne Alman found this Yma Sumac cart after years of searching. Here's what she has to say:

"Finally, my holy grail! (and a lot of other people's holy grail -- yes, I'm gloating).  Found at the swap meet in a big box of tapes, $5 for the whole box.  And it's a damn miracle that I finally found it! You may already know about this album, it's a cult classic. It's the Peruvian lounge goddess doing her wild, wordless 5 octave vocalizations, and this is her only album backed by a rock band! It is BEYOND cool! Yma wails, moans, and twitters her way through a groovy electric guitar backing. I'm listening to it right now, and I'm in Heaven I tell you, pure 8-TRACK HEAVEN!"

And what a primo-looking copy of it, too....."
