CD Reviews

Fantastic overview of a seminal label...

Robert Lett | Richmond, Va United States | 10/19/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"After watching the first two episodes of the PBS series "Latin Music USA" it got me to put this back on the stereo...The Fania label WAS Salsa during the 70's and this beautifully produced set is a testament to that fact. All the heavy hitters from the label are represented and the packaging is very lush, with stories of each song and nice reproductions of the lps from which they came. I would give this 10 stars if I could, that's how great it really is."
