Great production from Pancho Cristal, the man behind Chéo Feliciano or Ruben Bladès and one of the man behind the great label Tico Records.The LP seems to be the first of four albums, or best of, from this purist formation. Some of the guys here features on other similar orchestra from the period, like Tipica Novel, especially ma favourite violonist of the "salsa" sound, Alfredo de la Fé. I would be curious to know who is the guy whom talking behind "Africai", perhaps Laba Sosseh ? If someone knows...just tell me.
