Os Cabelos De Maria by Coroné (Coronel) Narcizinho e Sua Gente is one of the major classics of forró. Unusually, Hora Sertaneja has been reissued multiple times. The LP is still popular, arguably on the strength of this track and the way it celebrates the diverse styles of northeastern Brazilian music, including música sertaneja / sertanejo. Sertaneja / sertanejo also called gaucho (cowboy music) is reminiscent of Mexican folk music. The big difference between música sertaneja / sertanejo and forró is rhythm. Forró incorporates multiple rhythms that trace back to African roots, while música sertaneja / sertanejo doesn't. Both genres feel rootsy, but música sertaneja / sertanejo reminds me of great grandparents singing on the porch.
