The principal occupation of Global Groove is to post old and forgotten LP’s.
Every now and then however, we post our own compilations such as this one.
Made for my brother Johan, who lives in Copenhagen, but you Groovers around
the Globe, you can take it too if you like. Gypsie music bursts of flaming
emotion, instrumentalists pur sang I’d say.

This is Vallenata, Northern Colombian Pop.
That means songs of love, partying and social comment,
of local heroes and histories, but most of all it means dancing.

12 Luis Tobio/Vicente Iguita – El triunfador
13 Baranquilla Vallenata – Aparencia
