slack I walked to my roots Latino, and think well, I've never posted this rate I warmed my veins harbors the soul ... .. for a change last weekend at home I brought this to mind recuerdazo: "We were already then jump reel where uncomfortable questions ... .. and I got to me, " Bitt .. ... you remember that cassette sauce which I loved the Fania?, I still remember the mine to I lent it became the hue ... and never gave it back ... and I loaned it because it was your friend! "... .. hmmm, he was absolutely right, one of my friends messy and he asked him very gentleman, passed it, and never knew the famous cassette (years now, eh!) ... And as ¬ ¬ I did not want to take blame elderly or defend mines which almost do not remember, so I started pirates do neurons work (which alone tells me I have left a friend!), and remember the tracklist ....
it was a special album was a collection of Fania (group of salsa, the best that have ever existed;), and dedicated an album to the salsa-soul-rock, a mixture simply amazing, with tremendous artists: Cheo Feliciano, Jorge Santa
na (brother of Carlos and guitarist), Mongo Santamaria, Manu Dubango, and by far my favorite Conguero (pictured) Ray Barretto, was not to get lost, just remember the topic was more I liked and I like a mixture of salsa and rock, with sabooooorrrr, is a live MOUSE classic among classics, sure you have heard out there ... ... The album brought came with songs dedicated to LatinJazzRock, which was not precisely the specialty of these salsa, so had the collaboration with Jan Hammer and Billy Cobham (at that time members of the Mahavishnu).
The album has an excellent section of timbales, congas and congas, always remember that.
two great songs here are Soul Makossa and Congo Bongo. The first, Manu Dubango, African saxophonist shows without a doubt, the African roots of salsa. On both issues can not be let the spotlight Ray Barretto ringing those congas.
Saxo teaching salsa. Congo Bongo
Spectacular conga duel between Barretto and Mongo Santamaria ....
This album is one of those essential for any good fan of the sauce and for everyone who enjoys it as, the " MOUSE."
This, gentlemen, this is gravy, not the garbage they play some today, filling stadiums and people no idea of \u200b\u200bthe quality of what you hear, or roots, in short, will not change anything, but it is my right to kick , to demand recognition of the good music, played as it should, with the soul ....
Small Outline of the Fania All Stars Band , published in the Wiki:
The artistic director of most of the recordings of Fania All-Stars is Johnny Pacheco, founder, with Jerry Masucci seal . In 1968 Pacheco invented a "supergroup" called Fania All-Stars (Fania All Stars "in Castilian) which brought together the elite of salsa musicians and singers for performances and recordings of the group. Therefore the group is "the last puff of mate" in terms of salsa musicians. It should be recalled that in the U.S. had already a strong movement where jazz musicians were derived to the Salsa and Latin rhythms, a bit from these mergers come here looking for new sounds and rhythms, taking advantage of the richness and joy of Latin rhythms, as the case of Stan Getz and Fusion BossaNova with, for example. As an example of the importance of Fania, takes a look at some of the names that made up in some time: Hector Lavoe (vocals), Cheo Feliciano (vocals, maracas), Santos Colon (vocals), Bobby Cruz (vocals ), Celia Cruz (vocals), Ruben Blades (vocals), Wilfrido Vargas (vocals), Willie Colon (vocals, trombone), Eddie Palmieri (piano), Ray Barreto (congas), Mongo Santamaria (Congas), Johnny Pacheco (flute and musical director), Tito Puente (timbales, drums), Jorge Santana (guitar), Manu Dubango (Saxo) , among many others. LONG LIVE SALSA ... THE DEVELDÁ! cha cu cha cu cha cha ....
