│release notes.
This is Lavoe in top form! His signature tune "El Cantante" is
here. Produced by Willie Colon!!!
If you have a turntable look around for the Fania LP. No type of
cd or remastering will duplicate the sound of a LP.
About Hector Lavoe:
A great among greats, this great artistÆs life was marked by a
tragic destiny.
HΘctor Lavoe's interest in music began in his native Puerto Rico.
In search of new opportunities, he traveled to New York with a
suitcase full of dreams and the firm goal of landing a job in the
music world.
The road ahead was not an easy one. There were many obstacles to
overcome, and the price was high, as it often is for immigrants. He
held down precarious day jobs for bad pay; but at night, he gave
free rein to his dreams, performing in various night clubs.
Johnny Pacheco happened to hear him perform at one of those night
clubs. In Lavoe he discovered a powerful voice and the easiest of
manners. He was so impressed that he told Willie Col≤n he had found
a singer for the recording of his first album, ôEl malo.ö
The combination of HΘctor Lavoe and Willie Col≤n enriched the world
of salsa and set the stage for their collaboration, which lasted
seven years. It also gave birth to 10 albums, full of vibrant songs
that spoke the language of the street, a type of musical narrative
that the public identified with, one that cemented salsa as a
genre.
In 1975, Fania Records decided to launch its singers with the most
hits as soloists. Thus began a new phase of HΘctor LavoeÆs career,
just as brilliant and successful, boasting the release of many
albums that are now part of his rich musical legacy.
His life was an open book, each page of which documented the
tragedy and heartbreak that marked and influenced the rise and fall
of his brilliant professional career. HΘctor Lavoe died on June 29,
1993, at 46.
Enjoy!.
