The second release for Discos Fuentes by Peregoyo y su Combo VacanĂ¡, recorded circa 1967, is rich with diverse sounds and festive rhythms, from the exotic trance-inducing coastal Afro-Colombian polyrhythmic syncopations of the currulao, abozao chocoano, porro, cumbia and aguabajo to the more well-known genres of Cuban and Puerto Rican origin like descarga, bomba, guaracha and son montuno.

The nine-member combo was formed by composer and tenor saxophonist Enrique "Peregoyo" Urbano Tenorio in the Pacific coastal city of Buenaventura.

His stated mission was to modernize the folkloric music traditions of his region, proudly displaying Afro-Indigenous origins and spotlighting previously marginalized musical roots yet playing in a contemporary way with Cuban-inspired instrumentation and arrangements, uniting disparate genres into a commercially viable whole, thus contributing to the foundation of future developments in transnational tropical Latin music.

Presented in facsimile artwork and pressed on 180g vinyl.
