AccuRadio Song Of The Day-Liberacion


Artist:Liberacion

Song:La Burbuja

Album:Las Mas Bailables de...Liberacion


Liberacion have been successful on the Mexican regional charts since the 70s. They were particularly successful in the 80s with singles like La Barbuja. When I am looking at music like this, I am looking for older songs. I don't want anything too recent especially if the group has been around for decades. Liberacion was formed in Nuevo Leon in 1976 by keyboardist Virgilio Canales and lead singer Juan Tavares. They started out as a rock band. But by the early 80s, Canales shifted to the Mexican Regional tradition. They signed with Disa Records in 1984. From there they had a strong twenty year run. This was done mostly through live performances. Their first few albums for Disa were numbered volumes. La Burbuja was on the 1988 album Vol. VI. It was later re-released as La Burbuja. You can get the song on this comp. Liberacion's success continued in the 90s with several gold records and other awards. After Disa reissued their entire catalog and Liberacion went on a two year long tour to support it, Canales decided to go on hiatus in 2011. They returned in 2017 and are still going strong. Canales continues to modernize Liberacion to reach younger listeners. Here's the video for La Burbuja by Liberacion.
