abstract:Tangos is a studio album by the Argentinian vocal octet Buenos Aires 8. Recorded in 1973 and released by Music Hall Records in the same year, the album contains elaborate vocal arrangements for nine classic tangos and a milonga ("Taquito Militar", the first track in side two).
Among them are the folkloric tangos and chacareras of his native Argentina, though 20th Century European modernism, counterpoint, minimalism, drones, complex meters, children's songs, and human voices including his own untrained but emotional delivery are all featured heavily.
