La Población is a music album by Chilean folk singer and songwriter Víctor Jara, recorded and released in 1972[1] and reissued in 2001. It was recorded in homage of the struggle of people living in the poorest working class districts of Santiago de Chile, sometimes referred to as “shanty towns”. The album included the collaborative work between Jara and the Chilean writer Alejandro Sieveking.[1] The other artists included on the album were, Isabel Parra (on the opening track, "Lo único que tengo"), Bélgica Castro, Huamarí, and Cantamaranto .
