A legendary Nuyorican label that has done more to document the funk, boogaloo and salsa of Latin’s golden era than any other imprint , we’ve always loved Fania, and this is their best compilation yet. A single CD containing all of legendary conguero Barretto’s hardest hitting cuts – from the ludicrously funky ‘Hard Hands’ and much sampled ‘Soul Drummers’ to the joyous Latino-soul of ‘New York Soul’ and Austin Powers-y boogaloo of ‘El Watusi’ – every track here is a stone-cold classic.
