Notes2

One of the first milongas ever recorded, picked to show it is a folk rhythm, not yet dance music; the lyric is a jealous rant at an ex-girlfriend's new boyfriend.Single source

A rare milonga campera, backed only by guitars; chosen to show a genuinely angry, street-attitude side of Gardel.Single source
