about

Las hermanas colombianas Elia y Elizabeth Fleta grabaron un puñado de canciones entre 1972 y 1973, acompañadas por Jimmy Salcedo y su grupo La Onda Tres, mezclando soft-pop con un toque de funk tropical-pastoral, canción de autor endulzada por el sutil perfume musical del Caribe y por psicodelia.

Estos elementos se mezclaron con gracia, rebosantes de frescura, en una combinación idónea entre melodías perfectas con letras inspiradas en una genuina curiosidad juvenil sobre los misterios de la vida, el amor y la naturaleza en sus formas más simples.

Ahora nos alegra presentar los dos discos grabados por las hermanas Fleta a comienzos de los 70, tal y como fueron publicados originalmente por la discográfica de Colombia Codiscos-Zeida. Los audios se han remasterizado y hemos preservado el arte gráfico original de los álbumes.

Primera reedición en vinilo de este álbum que incluye el mayor éxito de Elia y Elizabeth ‘Alegría’.

-----------------------------------------------------

Colombian sisters Elia and Elizabeth Fleta recorded a handful of songs between 1972 and 1973, acompannied by Jimmy Salcedo and his group La Onda Tres, mixing soft-pop with a touch of tropical-pastoral funk, singer-songwriter sweetened by the subtle perfume of Caribbean music and psychedelia.

These elements blended graciously, brimming with freshness, in a perfect partnership of sharp melodies with lyrics inspired by a genuine juvenile curiosity about life's mysteries, love and nature in their simplest forms.

We are now happy to present the two albums recorded by the Fleta sisters in the early 70s as they were originally released on Colombia’s Codiscos-Zeida label. Audios have been remastered and we have preserved the original artwork of the albums.
First time vinyl reissue of this album that includes Elia y Elizabeth biggest hit ‘Alegría’.

UNTITLED (Rise)
by SAULT

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell

La Locura de Machuca 1975-1980 (Analog Africa Nr. 30)

Another golden compilation from AA! Great introduction to Afro-Colombian psychedelia via the Discos Machuca back catalogue. These songs are full of infectious percussion, trance-inducing rhythms, sun-soaked melodies, and hauntingly beautiful vocals. Hard to pick a favourite song, but I've played side D the most. j j headington
