This elusive and lesser-known collector’s gem by Óscar Agudello y el Combo Moderno called “Pa’ mi muñeca” is an album devoted to recreating the strength of a musical genre that’s been the soundtrack of Colombian life for decades and represents a milestone on the route cumbia had taken by 1966, when it was originally released on Discos Fuentes. It’s exactly the kind of music that lights up a tambó or a fandango circle on carnival night.
