Album Notes & Community Reviews
The trailblazing pianist and bandleader fundamentally reshaped the New York Latin music scene with this rhythmically complex, highly energized outing. Divided conceptually between hard-hitting salsa vocal tracks and instrumental descargas, the arrangements incorporate dissonant avant-garde elements and ferocious percussion. It is widely considered a cornerstone of the salsa dura explosion that defined the decade.
