VIOLETA PARRA – Las Ultimas Composiciones De Violeta Parra (Reissue) – LP – Vinyl [FEB 7]

LP – Black Vinyl.

This is the very last album released while Violeta Parra was still alive as she would kill herself only four months later, in February 1967.

In 1974 a new version of the album was released featuring string arrangements by Chilean composer Nino Garca and new artwork, a full-colour illustration based on the black and white photo of the original album cover. This became the most popular version of the album available in decades. The ownership of the original master tapes has been the subject of judicial disputes since the late 1990s and until very recent times, which explains the difficulty in having access to the original work, as originally conceived, throughout this period.

We are now glad to present Las ltimas composiciones de Violeta Parra as originally released in 1966, with remastered sound from the tapes and the original artwork.
