Time to re-post everything I have from Oslan Husein, the artist who popularized the Sumatera Mambo genre. His albums are super rare now and highly sought after... He was born in Padang, West-Sumatera in 1931 and passed away in Jakarta in 1972, at the young age of 41, from stomach problems....
Sumatera Mambo was developed by Orkes Gumarang, also from Padang, West-Sumatera but it was Oslan who really made the style popular, in the early 60's bands all over Indonesia and Malaysia were playing his songs, I'm a huge fan :)
Here's his fantastic album Malin Kundang with Orkes Teruna Ria....

Enjoy!
