In 1984, this was the first LP on which Eddie Palmieri
worked with only Puerto Rican musicians. A little salsa
for a change can’t hurt. It will make your lazy asses move
around like crazy, better be sure before you download …

One of Puerto Rico’s greatest was ‘Chuito, el de Bayamon’.
Chuito was one of the last musicians to play traditional
Jibaro, a few others are, Ramito, German Rosario and
Odilio Gonzalez. Use our search-bar to find them. Perfect
stuff to play during your newyears eve, adios año viejo.

This afternoon one of my friends reminded me how nice ;Jibaro’ is.
This Puerto Rican style is brought by guys like Ramito, German
Rosario, Odilio Gonzalez and of course ‘Chuito’. They call him ‘el
Decano de los Cantores’. On this Ansonia album from ?, Chuito
performs with his son ‘Chuitin’, they made a couple of records together.
Enjoy Chuito y Chuito con su Conjunto Típico.
Hey Kout, this one’s for you buddy !

tracks;

1 Un jibaro termináo

6 Se me sta acabando
7 Las cadenas
8 Baile de pajaros
9 Remordimiento
10 Lindo amanecer

If I am not mistaking, this is the 8th Ramito here at the GG so far.
Volume 6 brings us some songs we’ve seen on one of the other LP’s
but also some new ones. That is new to us of course, the exact year
of release is unknown to me, we’d have to guess. Jibaro is the name
of this style from Puerto Rico and Ramito is one of the originators.

10 Mas respeto a Puerto Rico
11 Dulce patria mia

Did you like the works of Ramito and Chuito ? You’ll probably
like this too, German Rosario is another Jibaro from Puerto Rico
and his music covers multiple styles. Milonga, Seis Rompetables,
Controversia, Aguinaldo, Seis, Mapayé and Llanera. Enjoy
German Rosario con Maso Rivera y sus Jibaros.

A while back we had an album of Cortijo on which Fe Cortijo
did a few songs, on this one she does’em all.
Backing vocals by Adalberto Santiago,
Ismael Quintana and even Tito Puente. Great Puerto Rican rhythms.

Do you still have your occasional dance in the livingroom sometimes ?
I have just the thing for a saturdaynight, Cortijo and his Combo are
here to brighten up the sphere. Percussionist and orchestral leader
Cortijo and singer Ismael Rivera are considered best interpreters
of the Plena, Danza and Bomba, three typical Puerto Rican styles.
A great dance album brought to us by Palladium Latin Jazz & Dance
Records. Recordings are from januari 10, 1958, year of release..?

1 El negro bembon

Dear visitors,
