There was a time I would never have believed an album with
such a cheap sleeve, naked girl and all, could be a good one.
Nowadays I know better. Au contraire, after collecting this
type of music some years I started loving them. The record
we have here is just what we like to find, thick carton sleeve,
heavy vinyl inside and luckily in good shape. It is from 1976
and contains a load of brilliant tracks, these cumbias are
sweet without exeption, just the way we love them, well
produced and compiled with passion. Get & Spread..

Did you enjoy that Colombian compilation I called ‘Cumbia Sabrosa’?
You can find it back on may 31, 2008, in our archives. It contained
that hot track, ‘Colombia tierra querida’. Lucho Bermudez was one of
the orchestral leaders that wrote history. Check out this album with
the traditional pretty lady cover. Gaita, porro, merengue, paseo,
cumbia and bolero by one of Colombia’s master composers.

I just got back from a two day recordsearch and came home
with a pile of music from Congo, Nigeria, Ghana, Haiti, Jamaica,
Mali, Guinée, Cabo Verde, Tchad, Trinidad, Puerto Rico, Cuba,
Brazil and Colombia. Wow, now I look at it myself, not a bad score.
The journey back took me almost seven hours today while in fact
it’s a 5 hour trip. Some big accident along the way. Tomorrow I’ll
tell you more, for now start listening to this happy music.
Discos Fuentes brings this collector with all kind of cumbia-like
tropical dance music, fantastic stuff you don’t want to miss.
An oldie but goodie so to say, do you know where I went ?
Demain Franck, demain plus.

I thought that would be a good idea, so I did. Here’s Colompilation

up, empty the room and dance !

It’s been a while since we had some Colombian music.
Here’s another Pacho Galán, an oldie from who knows what year?
It doesn’t tell. It contains renditions of songs like La Pollera
Colorá and Cumbia sobre el mar, to call a few.
Get this rare music.

tracks;

1 Prende la vela
2 La maya
3 La pollera azul
4 Mosaico tropical;
– Salsipuedes
– Furor tropical
– Caracoleando
5 Son cosas mias
6 La pollera colorá
7 San Fernando
8 La tabaquera
9 Kalamary
10 La molinera
11 Cumbia sobre el mar
12 La estereofonica

Now here is something very special, I need to make something clear.
Since this fine music is unavailable in most parts of the world, I am
making a big exeption, normally I would not post a CD which might
still be in the stores, Global Groove doesn’t want to hurt anybody’s
business. Come on Fuentes, spread this material around ! Europe,
Asia and other parts o.t.w. want this too ! Super nice compilation
of rare Colombian recordings, Discos Fuentes’
vaults contain fantastic stuff.
