A favorite within the collector community; this record has two great classics. In Cali, Colombia "La Cinta Verde" & "Echo chi Echo No" are always part on any "Discoteca" playlist. The track I want to sample sends an important message, "Vive tu Vida, No Estes Comentando, Lo Que No Te Conviene, Si a Nadie le Pido y a Nadie le Debo, !!Eso es mentira Que VA!!! Hoy Yo Vivo a mi Manera, Riendo y Cantando!! Weapaaaaaaa.

I discovered another obscure Panamanian record. The Hard Salsa that came from Panama has its distinct sound. This particular recording has lots of strings, I'm assuming played by Roberto himself. I cant stop playing "El Negro de la Ciudad". Very nice.....

LA ORQUESTA

Greeting folks! I'm back after a long rest. The holiday season is fast approaching and I wanted to post a few records; my time will be limited towards the end of the year.

While searching for a record to post, I stumbled upon this recording. Not much information available. I know its from Venezuela, recorded in 1984 and the vocalist are Larry Francia and Edgar Quijada. Theirs two tracks that I enjoyed. I can say that both tracks are slow Guaguanco ballads with romantic lyrics. Like always...check it out!
