Siembra

Willie Colón & Rubén Blades' 'Siembra' is a landmark of the salsa genre, defined by its fusion of disco and funk elements with sophisticated salsa structures and potent social commentary. Willie Colón's trombone-centric arrangements and production provide a dynamic foundation for Rubén Blades' narrative-driven songwriting, most famously on the epic, Brecht-inspired story-song 'Pedro Navaja.' The album's unprecedented commercial success and lasting influence established a new benchmark for artistic and political expression in Latin music.
