CD ReviewsAn all-time Salsa essential. An undisputed classic. Justo Roteta | Los Angeles, California United States | 08/23/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "Because so many of Eddie's recordings for the Tico and Alegre labels are undisputed classics, it's extremely daunting to choose one over all the others (most are excellent). This one, however, features the two-trombone lineup and most of La Perfecta's peerless musicians (Barry Rogers, Bobby Rodriguez, Tommy Lopez, etc.) and the vocal spice and improvisations of the great Ismael Quintana. Buy it while you still can." Debut Album Frank | NY United States | 02/27/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "Bought this album on LP when first released. Without checking the album, my recollection is it's Eddie's debut. Many reviews on Amazon about which Palmieri album is best introduction. I'd pick this one for obvious reasons but also because every track is a gem. Also note that Eddie dropped the trumpets after this album for his subsequent two-trombone style. I have an extensive collection of "salsa" albums from the golden age (50's through 70's) before salsa romantica diluted this most viscerally exciting of all music. This collection includes almost all of the output of Puente, Barretto, Palmieri, Santamaria, Cuba, ... I can go on and on. In retrospect, Palmieri was to me the King ... with Barretto not far behind. That helps characterize my tastes for you. If you're resonant with that, I highly recommend you get everything available that Eddie ever recorded!" A classic William Jones | Rockville, MD USA | 09/12/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "Eddie brought attention to the two-trombone horn section with this group. His salsa work is some of the best. This is a great introduction."
