Mr New York & The East Side Kids (remastered edition)
CD (Item 425166) Fania, Late 60s -- Condition: New Copy
Amazing work from the Spanish Harlem underground of the late 60s! From the title, to the cover, to the beautiful blend of songs, this album perfectly sums up the rich energy and raw power bubbling in the NuYorican scene of the time -- effortlessly blending together soul, Latin, jazz, and funk -- making the whole thing work perfectly because that's the way it was! These cats didn't know anything about rules -- at least not until the big bad older Latin mafia snapped them in place -- and the result is a freewheeling album of hard grooving jammers and sweetly emotive soul tunes! Tracks include "My Opera", "Puerto Rico Me Llama", "Make Me Smile", "Es Tu Cosa", "The Prayer", "Aguanta La Lengua", and "Chili Beans". (Limited edition!) © 1996-2010, Dusty Groove America, Inc. | |||||
