Today, it's a badge of identity for Colombians everywhere, but is now also enjoying a global renaissance; filling dance floors and captivating a new generation of music fans. 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 makeup 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. Disc 1 features a broad range of cumbia styles with recordings from 1960 through to 1988, whilst disc 2 digs further into the classics of the past focusing almost exclusively on the 1950s and 1960s.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"837","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50571100389672,"sku":"405053863264","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/various-cumbia-cumbia-1-2-lp-405053863264","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
