And for the sake of multiculturalism, here one of the most traditional Andean dances, Valicha (it's a courtship dance, which means that each move is pre-determined, there's no room for randomness or improvisation; in this one the dancers make a few mistakes--it's supposed to be flawless):

It was hard to hear the Cherango in taht piece but the pitch and rythm were unmistakable. Thanks for posting it. Here's one for you. A bit nostalgic. P P & M did this one before 1970 but here is Gordon's take on it. [url=]Lovng Me![/url]
