Mike Laure y Sus Cometas – Tiburón, Tiburón
Song
In 1960s Jalisco, Mike Laure transformed Mexican dancehalls by blending Colombian cumbia rhythms with American rock and roll instrumentation. Fronted by sharp saxophone and trumpet harmonies over a walking electric bass, Tiburón, Tiburón demonstrated how cumbia could absorb dancehall rock without losing its natural syncopation.
