This is the Gloria from the "Misa Criolla", an Argentine version of the Catholic Mass. The composer is Ariel Ramirez. It is also the original version.

There’s a new version of La Llorona from Natalia Lafourcade that is terrific!

This version is incredible!

That’s Argie to the bone! Wow!

I used to play it in the guitar as a kid!

Great thread topic! I appreciate the relative lack of reggaeton especially.

As a contribution, I love this serendipitous discovery. An ineffable song and an entrancing voice:

@Soandso I liked the tunes after I fond them, especially Ray Barretto, but why not post links instead of graphics? So much easier to check them out.

To all: Sorry if I stepped out of bounds with a recent dancey pop cover. Once I went through more posts I realized it was mostly tending toward a mellow Spanish guitar style not so much the New World of this century. If appropriate, I would love to see what people like in the more contemporary Latin artists. Spotify is great at suggesting trendy overproduced commercial junk but pretty bad at identifying good ones.

EDITED: As I keep reading, I see there is some pop early in the thread - great and please keep it coming.

Here's another, less recent fave, from a great Aussie (!) Latin-infused. pop band:

@Scrutable
No apologies necessary!
I struggled with what to post as the options are incredibly vast!
You can see that from the variations in what I posted.

I don't use Utoob for listening to music. Deezer is my streaming subscription so convenient to screen shot a graphic illustration of the recording I listen to.
