Summary: Muy sobroso Cumbias de Colombia!!! 2005-10-22
Comment: These are the hottest Cumbias from Colombia. Great rhythms, spicy percussions, and simply fun party and dancing music. A variety of bands are sampled here, mostly well known in Colombia, all on the legendary discos Fuentes label. All the bands are exellent, and they are all well known among fans of tropical music in South & Centro America.
These really are classic recordings, and they are meant for dancing and fiesta. So put your dancing shoes on, and get ready for some percussion filled fiery(muy picante)Cumbias!!!

Summary: The difinitive single disc Cumbia colelction available & in print 2005-10-22
Comment: There are by far difinitive single disc collections that feature Cumbia's from Columbia from the 1950's, however thsoe are next to impossible to find in the USA, so thsi collection is the best and easiest to locate. If you want to go back and investigate the roots of 50's Cumbia, you'll have to search out bootlegs from Colombia and Mexico. This cd features some original versions of popualr Cumbis's and some are vintagem however there is a variety, and the music is tropical, and great for dancing, and livening up parties. The rhythms and percussions(congas) are irresistable. There is an almost hypnoctic sound to Cumbias, they are very addicting, you will dance when this cd goes in the player. A great cd!

Summary: A pleasing cd of some hard driving danceable Cumbias 2005-10-21
Comment: If this cd of the best Cumbias from Colombia doesn't satisfy you, no Cumbia cd ever will! This is top notch, 1st class danceable Cumbia directly from Colombia. All the great bands including Sonora Dinamita are on here, and even though the collection doesn't go as far back into the 50's & 60's, it gives a good idea of a spicier less commercial sounding Cumbia, these bands do NOT use any synthesizers, it's al lreal percussion baby! GREAT STUFF! Vamos a bailar!

Summary: Clasica Cumbias de Colombia 2005-10-20
Comment: OK so maybe these are not "clasico" in teh sense of being from the 1950's, but they are classic versions of some good authentic Cumbia de Colombia. This cd is as good as any, if not better. There are no synthesized instruments like many of teh modern Sonideros, these are all real musicians and great percussionists. Everything on the great Discos Fuentes label is generally good, and un-synthesized. These sides are MUY TROPICAL, and very exotic(& sound very 1950's) and are gaurenteed to liven up your next party waether you are Latin or gavacho! In fact the rhytms are Cumbia, but there are more touches of Sun Montuno, Salsa, and other forms of tropical mixed in, for a more varied flavor. Muy sobroso!!!
