Rock-solid, hard-swinging and fiery-hot 1970s New York salsa sounds. This is an absolutely essential CD for your collection. Marvin Santiago was a great sonero and he gives some of his rawest and funkiest performances on such outstanding tracks as "La Rumba Te Espera", "La Leonor", "Soy Boricua" and "Alacran (Tumbando Cana)". Great tunes, great arrangement by the master bassist Bobby Valentin in a time and place that is long gone, when salsa arrangements and soneos were done for the love of the art and the passion they felt at the time. A Must-Have!
