Alegria

Colombian sisters Elia and Elizabeth Fleta recorded a handful of songs between 1972 and 1973, accompanied 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'.
