Cariñito
Rosado's 1978 cumbia, recorded in a single take and later covered across Latin America.
Los Hijos del Sol (1978)
Rosado wrote it, and Wikipedia lists it at 4:06 on Sony Music Latin, likely a later reissue. Wikipedia dates the composition to 1979 and KCH to 1977; Panamericana says Rosado's widow, Eugenia Acosta, said many of his songs came from his life as a couple. It was recorded in April 1978, registered in 1980, and appears as track 3 on volume one of The Roots of Chicha. We found no chart history, video, setlist counts or SecondHandSongs entry, and we do not know whether our upload is the original or a reissue.
