Fruko y sus Tesos – El Violento
I am quite sure I posted some 5 or 6 Fruko lp’s in the past
but somehow they got lost, really do not understand how.
One way or the other, I’ll bring them back straight away.
This is ‘Fruko – El Violento’ from 1973 on Discos Fuentes
off course and with his buddies Wilson Saoko and Joe
Arroyo, lead vocals. Fruko and his friends were crazy
about New Yorks salsa brava movement on Fania. The
lp’s front and backsleeve breath more or less the same
gangster look like for instance Willie
Colon’s covers in that era.
For now, a piece of Colombia’s salsa history with
Fruko y sus Tesos, get it and spread it..
tracks;
1 Tronco seco
2 El violento
3 Nadando
4 La nueva bamba
5 To solo tu
6 Salsa na ma
7 Alma navideña
8 Lamento cubano
9 Mosaico matancero,
– Vamos pa’l campo
– La nochebuena
– Rumba en navidad

Moos, I’ve been working through these Fruko albums, one per summer, for the past 5 years. I just added El Patillero to my iPod yesterday and am enjoying it now. Thank you very much, I love them. While I have two more to go, do you have any more? If not, I’ll be happy with what you posted back in 2014!
