Pedro Laza y sus Pelayeros - El Corralejo Pelayo

Review by Elizabeth Hawksworth

Pedro Laza y sus Pelayeros' album El Corralejo Pelayo is a masterpiece of traditional Colombian music. The album features a range of instruments including horns, drums, and maracas, all of which come together to create a lively and energetic sound that is truly infectious.

The album's title track, "El Corralejo Pelayo," is a standout, with its driving rhythm and catchy melody. Other tracks like "La Zenaida" and "La Cumbia del Monte" showcase the band's skill at blending different styles of music, from cumbia to porro.

One of the album's strengths is its ability to transport the listener to a different time and place. The music is steeped in tradition, and there is a sense of history and culture that pervades every note. It's hard not to imagine yourself dancing in a crowded plaza or celebrating with friends and family while listening to this album.
