PONCHO SANCHEZ
PONCHO
TREND RECORDS
DS - 799

Once again, another great buy from Ebay. I've been trying to stay away from sellers who inflate prices by bidding on the items themselves. This is an excellent record with a great "Mama Guela" version. Check out the magic Mr. Sanchez plays on its conga solo. WOW...

Again, another edition of 45 rpm madness! Madness I tell ya! On Sunday, I went to a record fair in New Haven, Connecticut. My goal was to come out with at least a good record. Well, I came out a happy man, several records and 45's. Money well spent! Especially with this Enrique Lynch beauty. I added a new twist with video of both sides of this 45. Enjoy.....

BOBBY CRUZ Y SU COMBO
FONSECA RECORDS

This 45 got me confuse, the artist is Bobby Cruz y su Combo. However, the vocalists are Carlitos Arroyo and Tony Garcia. I don't know if this is the same Richie Ray and Bobby Cruz we all know. On side A is a Wable Cha Cha called " El Maton" and side B is "Nebra Bombom" Tell you what though! They sure can MAMBO, MAMBO, MAMBO!!!!
