Title: Beautiful Legacy From Times Gone By
Review: What can be said about "Cortijo Y Su Combo", that hasn't been said already. Living legends in their own time. This 1961 Seeco Records release, features Ismael Rivera, Roy Rosario,and cuban Nelson Pinedo, as vocalists, with "Maelo" being the lead singer in five of them. Roy Rosario had left the "combo" by the time this LP came out. In addition, the selections; "Amarra La Cadena" and "Conocì A Tu Papà", sang by Rosario, are two of Cortijo's first LP, "Cortijo Y Su Combo:Invites You To Dance", songs, that were reissue as fillers for this production. Overall ,is a beatiful and classic masterpiece that enhances some of our rich native (puertorrican) rythms, like; la plena, la bomba, and el son jìbaro, mixed in with other caribbean rythms, like; cha cha chà, mambo, merengue, and calypso.
