A CLASSY SALSA CD
raphael rodriguez | ATLANTA GEORGIA | 06/26/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"THIS IS HECTORS FIRST RELEASE AS SOLO ARTIST,EVEN THOUGH ISMAEL MIRANDA BEAT HIM TO THE SOLO CAREER IN THE SALSA GOLDEN AGE HECTOR CAME OUT A YEAR LATER WITH THIS SMASHING ALBUM, ALL THE TRACKS WERE HITS, MY FAVORITE TUNE IS ROMPE SARAGUEY HAS GREAT PIANO AND TRUMPET SOLO THAT WOULD WANT YOU TO KEEP DANCING.TODOPODEROSO THE PROMOTION TRACK WAS ON THE HIT PARADE FOR QUITE A WHILE THIS SONG HAS GREAT MESSAGE IN IT, PARAISO DE LA DULZURA IS A SONG THAT HECTOR SINGS TO HIS BELOVED P.R. . THIS ALBUM WAS PRODUCED BY WILLIE COLON . I HIGHLY RECOMEND THIS CD ."
Lavoe's first solo album!!!

"Here is the remastered edition of Hector Lavoe's first album. This edition includes the original cover art and an essay. It does sound much better than the previous Fania edition and it's cheaper too!

Produced by Willie Colon and featuring Mark Dimond on piano, Nicky Marrero on timbales and Ray Maldonado on trumpet, this is a New York salsa classic (1975)from beginning to end. No weak or filler tunes here.

BUY IT!!!

Hector's all-time classic debut album.
Justo Roteta | Los Angeles, California United States | 12/16/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"While never released as a single, Hector's truly superb cover version of the classic bolero "Tus Ojos" (previously recorded by both Santos Colon and Vicentico Valdes) is this album's crown jewel. In my opinion, said song is Hector's all-time best vocal performance--so much so, in fact, that I'd say it was nothing short of shameful that it wasn't issued as a single. "El Todopoderoso", "Rompe Saraguey" and "Mi Gente" were the big hits --which deservedly became classics--but "Tus Ojos" remains beautiful beyond compare."
