Pacho Galan – Caracoleando, Tropical

Pacho Galán, front, cd size

COLOMBIA SPECIAL

Today’s special about Colombia would not be the same without this
rare album. Pacho Galán was one of the biggest composers of Porro,
Fandango and the inventor of ‘Merecumbé’. Colombian music would
also not have been the same without Pacho Galán.
‘Ay Cosita Linda’ was maybe his biggest hit and the birth of Merecumbé.
He himself was born on october the 4th in Soledad, Atlántico,and
wanted to be a musician since he was a child. Went to conservatoire
and was a professional musician at the age of 15.
The titlesong of this LP was also a great succes in those days.
Stay tuned…

    First I want to thank you for the incredible amount of work you’ve put into this site. It astounds me that there are so many dedicated bloggers such as yourself who put in the time and effort to keep great obscure or out of print music available. I especially appreciate the large LP covers scans, being a graphics professional and long time vinyl collector.

    Secondly, I’m afraid Rapidshare is up to their old tricks and has been pulling some of your links again including this one. Thanks for using MediaFire for your new posts. It’s much more convenient for the downloader to be sure. MegaUpload seems to be great for holding onto files and not purging them if there’s no downloads for a while as well.

    Cheers and thanks again.
