The Fania All Stars’ had their first official performance in 1968 at the Red Garter in the Village. But it wasn’t until three years later that the group got hot at the Cheetah in New York. That night at the Cheetah was a salsa-induced delirium marking the lives of many who were present on that historic occasion. This second volume of “Live at Cheetah” starts with an impromptu rumba jam where the chorus salutes a certain Ruben in the audience.The chant: A donde está Ruben, a donde está?) for years has been mistakenly credited as dedicated to Ruben Blades, who wasn’t even in New York at the time. The actual person referenced here is a dancer named Ruben Santiago. Then Harlow takes the microphone and introduces Richie Ray and Bobby Cruz to a standing ovation, as they perform their own song “Ahora Vengo Yo”, composed especially for this show, with Ray’s younger brother and trumpet virtuoso Ray Maldonado sitting in. “Estrellas de Fania”, which was actually that concert’s opener, introducing singers Adalberto Santiago, Hector Lavoe, Ismael Miranda, Pete El Conde Rodriguez and Santos Colón. To continue ready visit http://www.fania.com/products/live-at...
