Actually I should have distinguished, Yes earlier tangos were almost
exclusively single recordings. Even so they would make single records of other types
of music. Not sure when albums of more than one song appeared in Buenos Aires,
probably late forties? I would venture that they appeared not long after here
since RCA Victor had a studio there for many years. (Anyone know this?) But
the fact remains that the orchestras would play other types of music, both in
the recording studio and at some dances.
