Being more and more crazy about vallenato I decided to
make a compilation of some of my favourite tracks. It
contains songs that have been on my turntable a lot.
I used the cover of an album I’m still searching for.
Alonso Pedrozo or ‘el Pollo Cantor’ is not on this
collector but he will appear at the GG shortly.
The ones that do appear will not disappoint
if you are into this hot style of music.
Get it & spread it..
