The album features music from the golden era of Fuentes; from late 50s and 1960s Cumbia through to the emergence of heavyweight and hardcore salsa and Afro-funk in the 1970s and up to the early 1980s. Discos Fuentes pioneered the sound of ‘Tropical’ music – Afro-Colombian dance music that originated in the north coast of Colombia bringing it to a new worldwide audience. This album shows how Colombian music was also influenced by New York barrio-style hard Latin and salsa and Caribbean styles such as soka and zouk to create a truly unique dance music sound.\" - \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.sbs\/search?type=article%2Cpage%2Cproduct\u0026amp;q=Soul%20Jazz%20Records\u0026amp;_=pf\u0026amp;pf_v_artist_manufacturer=Soul%20Jazz%20Records\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSoul Jazz Records\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ecompilation of rare cumbia, salsa + Latin funk tracks from the Discos Fuentes label\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eblack double vinyl pressing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ehoused in gatefold sleeve w\/ extensive liner notes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003edigital download included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emusic label: Soul Jazz Records 2025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Soul Jazz Records","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl 2LP","offer_id":42117923897434,"sku":"fr-5348","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/4542\/files\/souljazz-latinfire-blackvinyl-1.jpg?v=1757627764","url":"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.sbs\/products\/soul-jazz-records-latin-fire-tropical-dance-music-from-discos-fuentes-colombia-1956-83-vinyl-2lp","provider":"turntablelab.sbs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
