Vinyl LP pressing. Essential jazz from Argentina, originally released in 1971. Bronca Buenos Aires is one of the highlights in the career of Jorge López Ruiz, alongside El Grito and the much-acclaimed Viejas Raíces project. The album is jazz poem by López Ruiz to the city he loved, not just for it's virtues but also it's faults, and the recording was an ambitious project that gathered many of the prominent jazz musicians of Buenos Aires.
