Rita Zaharah / Sajekti / M. Rivany - Intro To The Krontjong-Beat

Evergreen - LP

Indonesia, 1964

Krontjong / Latin

Absolutely bewitching set of Krontjong songs, a latin-style genre of Indonesian popular music, revolving around the use of a western small-sized guitar, quite similar to a Ukulele, called "Krontjong". cha-chas, beguines and rhumbas from the early 1960's. Big Wong Kar-wai's vibes and overall beautiful music :') (VG+/VG+)
