Editorial Reviews
From Amazon.com
As a youngster, Félix Baloy was influenced by the great Cuban sonero Beny Moré and made a living singing until the Cuban revolution, after which he laid low until the mid-'70s when he resumed his career with the great Elio Revé. Eventually he ended up vocalizing for the Afro-Cuban All Stars, many of whom back him on this satisfying solo debut. Excellent as the band is, this is Baloy's record, showing all his chops, whether singing in a free upper range, scatting, or simply being gloriously melodic. The music ranges from the driving montuno of the title cut to the rhythmic Afro-Cuban guaguanco-changüi of the closer, "Misericordia, ¡No Aguanto!" Add to that a spry duet with Teresa Garcia Caturla (who's worked with Ibrahim Ferrer) on "Mami Te Gustó" and you have a sparkling record with unstoppable grooves and swing--the kind of debut that's the dream of every artist, even if they are 56 years old. --Chris Nickson
