Re is the second studio album by Mexican band Café Tacuba, released in 1994. The album has been called "the equivalent of The Beatles White Album for the rock en español movement" by The New York Times. The name comes from the second syllable in Solfege, and from it being their second album.
Re album established Café Tacuba's style of genre-switching, which hadn't been as prominent in their debut album, Café Tacuba, released two years earlier. Its sheer length - an hour long - and experimentation with musical styles has made it a favorite among fans. One notable aspect of the album is that it contains several musical genres, notably norteño, huapango, Banda, and Bolero music.
The album is considered by some to be the best Latin American album of all time.
Colombian band Aterciopelados performed a song entitled Re as a homage to the band and the album on their 2016 live album Reluciente, Rechinante y Aterciopelado.
