Venezuela, 1971, onda nueva

Aldemaro Romero – El fabuloso Aldemaro y su onda nueva: Really moving into unfamiliar (yet super fun) territory here, so this is a rare treat! So what is onda nueva? Well, it’s based on “the traditional musical style and dance of Venezuelan and Colombian origin, incorporating elements of Creole music and the Venezuelan waltz”, but it goes a step further and blends bossa nova and jazz into the mix. This album is Life enjoying Itself.
