Taki Ongoy is a 1986 concept album by Argentine singer-songwriter Víctor Heredia.[1] The work is centered around the 16th-century Indigenous movement Taki Unquy and the impact of the Spanish colonization of the Americas. Heredia's maternal grandmother was Capayán.[2]

The album featured collaborations from Argentine musicians Mercedes Sosa, Juan Carlos Baglietto, and Jorge Fandermole, as well as narrations from actor Héctor Tealdi.
The album reaffirms Indigenous culture and religious practices and criticizes the violence of Spanish conquistadores and the Catholic Church. Monsignor Desiderio Collino, bishop of the Diocese of Lomas de Zamora, called for Heredia's excommunication.[3] The Spanish ambassador to Argentina also pressured Raúl Alfonsín, then-president of Argentina, to ban the album.
