Cumbia Cumbia 1 & 2 – v/a 2lp

Reissue op World Circuit van beide delen van deze mooie verzamelaars, nu op hip gekleurd vinyl. ‘Originally released by World Circuit as two separate albums – ‘Cumbia Cumbia’ in 1989 and ‘Cumbia Cumbia 2’ in 1993 – this collection brings together some of the greatest recordings made by Colombia’s legendary record label, Discos Fuentes, between 1954 and 1988. This collection presents thirty of these three-minute-masterpieces, showcasing the gamut of styles that make up the distinctive and irresistible cumbia sound; a sound typified by a loping 2/4 gait and a pulsing rocksteady bassline, overlaid with heavy rural percussion, brass, accordion, clarinet, electric guitar and vocals.’ Mooi toch? Je kunt ze hier luisteren eventueel.
