Hello groovers, I received a bunch of comments of folks who want to download Colombian albums I posted in the past. Most of their links are dead and I'm not re-uploading them. Untill the new page is ready to roll you'll have to settle with the stuff posted today. I can only soften the blow[...]

Two Great artists on one lp, Lisandro Meza and Alejandro Duran appear together on this slice of tropical candy. Backsleeve info is quite poor so I am just guessing both musicians play with Lisandro's Conjunto Sabanero. Track one is written by Lisandro, track two by Alejo, track 3 by Lisandro and so on. I'm not[...]

Listening to music while driving is one of the best ways. You are alone in your car, a good sound surrounds you. This way every note comes in as pure as possible. This past week I was blown away by one of Landero's songs again. When it comes to vallenato he was one of the[...]

It opens with the title song, a strong cumbia called 'Pajaro Sinsonte'. Yes, Abel Antonio Villa was a master in his field, his music sparkles. Although the quality of this record is not what we would want, I couldn't withhold it from you. It is a rarity. Get it & spread it .. Hij opent[...]

On Colombian record label Discos Fuentes we find this great collection of songs. All artists presented are from Colombia except for one. Celia Cruz is the strange exception on this album that mostly has vallenato tracks. No idea why Disco Fuentes decided to add 'Quede Zaina' on which Celia Cruz appears with Cuban orchestra La[...]

Alberto Pacheco, geboren in Barranquilla, vestigde zich in Valledupar waar zijn muzikale carrière zich ontvouwde. Hij leerde accordeon spelen van José maria Peñaranda.

Alhoewel we nog steeds achter lopen op de realiteit is dit toch alweer Sampler no. 80. Als je alle samplers zou downloaden heb je een aardig beeld van wat de Global Groove behelst. Een bonte verzameling aan tropische, maar ook wel enkele andere, muziekstijlen. Zoals je weet vind je de platen waar de samples vanaf[...]
