Celebrate the 50th anniversary of a historic album, Latin-Soul-Rock, with a special 180-gram vinyl reissue. Set for release on May 24, 2024, the long-out-of-print album has been newly remastered from analog sources and is housed in a tip-on single-pocket gatefold jacket, replicating its original design—including liner notes from Jerry Masucci, plus a 1973 review of the concert from the New York Post. Additionally, Latin-Soul-Rock will also make its debut in 192/24 hi-res digital audio. Additionally, a deluxe Fuego vinyl color exclusive, limited to 300 copies, with an exciting bundle option that includes a Fania All Stars Live at Yankee Stadium commemorative baseball T-shirt, is available now.

On August 24, 1973, 40,000 salsa fans (a record-breaking crowd at the time for a Latin music event) eagerly piled into New York’s Yankee Stadium to watch some of the world’s most influential artists share the stage. But the Fania All Stars—a collective that included such legends as Johnny Pacheco, Willie Colon, Ray Barretto, and Héctor Lavoe—was eager to highlight its versatility by performing not just Latin hits, but also soul and rock hits from the day. Joined by a variety of special guests, including Mongo Santamaria, Manu Dibango, Jorge “Malo” Santana, plus Billy Cobham and Jan Hammer of the Mahavishnu Orchestra—the All Stars launched into a funky, high-energy set (which was scheduled to include such hits as Dibango’s “Soul Makossa,” Edwin Starr’s “There You Go,” and the Joe Cuba Sextet’s “El Ratón”). But not long after they began, the concert was cut short as thousands of excited fans poured onto the field, forcing the concert to end prematurely. What was captured on tape reverberated with the energy of that evening, while subsequent recordings (to round out the rest of the setlist) showcased the sheer talent of everyone involved. The resulting album, 1974’s Latin-Soul-Rock, became an instant classic.
