"I just picked this up and if you don't have it, get it - classic. It is probably Celia's best album overall and Pacheco lays down the money groove throughout. This music dances, cooks, and puts you in a happy place. Trust me. This is money well spent my friend. Azucar!"

A GEM!

"This recording is a classic! If you buy it, play it LOUD! This is one of Celia Cruz's best, Johnny Pacheco's groove plus Celia's voice, PERFECTION! Warning, it will make you dance! If I could, I'd rate it 10 stars!"

The Essence of Classic Salsa

"The New York Times said it all: "What really shines through on [this] remastered record is extraordinary musicianship. Albums like 'Celia & Johnny' ... are the essence of classic salsa: tough, gleaming, unstoppable dance music, with brass fanfares braying over crackling syncopation from claves, timbales and congas."
