I can't believe that this page didn't mention the great influence of Bolivian and Peruvian immigrants in the growth of this music style.

I think the right translation from spanish "Cumbia Argentina" to english is not "Argentine Cumbia", but Argentinean Cumbia !!!!!!! —This unsigned comment was added by F3rn4nd0 ( talk • contribs) 06:25, 23 March 2006.
The article as of Apr 25 2007 has some serious overlap with cumbia villera and fails to explain the roots of Argentine cumbia.
Cumbia in Argentina has two main traditions, other than the chicha Peruvian import correctly noted elsewhere in this comment: cumbia tucumana, and the "tropical" umbrella term used by bands all over Argentina to refer to imports such as baiao, guaracha, bolero, etc. Leon Gieco was fond of telling that his father's band would dress up and play a straight tango set, then don colorful garb and switch to "tropical".
Some of the artists noted are not cumbia artists, but rather artists incorporating cumbia into their repertoires (Trulala for example is a cuarteto band).
A very important moment in Argentine cumbia was the success of Chico Novarro doing numbers such as "El Orangutan" in the mid-sixties. A fine example of more recent vintage is "Corazon" by Los Autenticos Decadentes (c. 2000). elpincha 21:35, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
