Tito Puente Swings, the Exciting Lupe Sings (Fania Originals Remastered)
La Lupe
Released:
Jan 2011
Label:
Tico
In the '60s, the performing partnership of Latin jazz king Tito Puente and diva extraordinaire La Lupe was legendary, a foundation for Latin soul and dance. On these remasters from the renowned Fania label, it's easy to hear why. Puente's combo cooks with masterful passion, sizzling up hip-twitching dance cuts, aching boleros and the Santeria traditional "Elube Chango." (Lupe was a practitioner). But it's La Lupe you gravitate toward, her husky, fervent voice going down like a burning shot of rum, her high drama persona practically leaping off the record. "Que Te Pedi" will break your heart.
