DJ Rumor: Mix Excerpt
From Fania Live 01: From The Meat Market (Fania, 2007)

Includes:Ray Barretto: Teacher of Love from Acid.
Joe Cuba: Gimme Some Love from My Man Speedy.
Tito Puente: Pata Pata from King Tito Puente.
The beautiful thing about having a love affair with music is that no matter how many good songs you already know, you can always be humbled by the infinite number of great songs you don’t know. Case in point: this mix commissioned by Fania (or Emusica), mixed by DJ Rumor includes a bevy of kick ass Latin dance songs, many of which I already knew but a few I had never heard before and a few that I just plain slept on. The Joe Cuba Sextet’s “Gimme Some Love” is a perfect example: I never picked up My Man Speedy before so I never heard this tune but once this boogaloo shifts midway through to bring in some classic piano vamps, I was hooked. Likewise, Acid is possibly my favorite Latin album ever…but I usually skipped past “Teacher of Love” and failed to appreciate how it was yet another excellent Latin soul cooker from Barretto (whose catalog only gets better to me with age). And likewise, I had heard “Pata Pata” before but never really listened to it, if you know what I mean.

And just in general, I love the idea behind this mix series especially since it’s not purely Fania-oriented but can include many of the other Latin labels that Fania has swallowed up over the years like Tico and Alegre. Definitely looking forward to the next volume.
