Celia Cruz And The Fania All Stars - In Africa album flac

Kidjo’s album 'Celia' celebrates the African heritage of Cruz. As an African girl, when I first heard Celia Cruz sing 'Quimbara,' it just struck a chord, Angélique Kidjo tells Billboard of the salsa classic that Cruz recorded with Johnny Pacheco for the 1974 album Celia & Johnny. Africa is there all the way in Celia’s music, says Kidjo, the multiple Grammy winner known for forging new definitions of Afro-pop and her uninhibited embrace of musical styles. For her previous album, she covered Talking Heads’ Remain in Light, and she performed as a soloist in Philip Glass’ recently premiered symphony Lodger, which incorporates lyrics from that David Bowie album. It was after she performed in the Democratic Republic of Congo at the boxing match.

In 1977, Cruz records her first record with the backing of the trombonist and salsa orchestrator Willie Colón, a fusion that would be repeated with great success in 1981 and in 1987. In 1982, Celia was reunited with the Sonora Matancera, and recorded the album Feliz Encuentro

Thier new ideas were so innovative for thier time. It's definetly a gift to be able not only to hear thier music but to see them in action. All of the performers are outstanding to include Roberto Roena (Bongos), Nicky Marrero (Timbales), Ray Barreto (Congas), and many others. They show that they are the best of the best  . Celia Cruz performs in the first two songs. Overall it is history that must be seen by any salsa fan. It can also be considered an important historical document. You must see it to believ.
