Celia Cruz & The Fania All Stars ~ Quimbara

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Celia was an amazing talent! BTW Prince showed a clip from one of her performances before his show on Saturday.

So much talent on that stage...

I've always been more of a La Lupe fan than a Celia fan, but I loved her energy as well. Two very different styles and personalities. Celia wasn't listened to much at all in my household though...

Change it one more time..

Thank you for this one! Celia, Johnny, Hector y Yamo (our Jimmi Hendrix on the tres) Ah, cleaning the house on Saturday mornings, then turning on the TV to check out Soul Train. I still have the LP of this concert . I really should get the CD, if it is still available thru Fania - heck they'd still selling their Grandpa's decimas. This is my youth and in between I was able to mix my own soundtrack...Gosh I really love my music !biggrin

I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last....
