"This production is a most have for any music lover. In this production Roberto Roena take you back to the seventies and eigthies with his wonderful music and the peculiar sound that made him one of the most recongized musician around latin america and the world. I highly recommend this production to the new generation and the old one."

"This is a supreme music composition put together by this individual. If you love salsa you have to own this. Roena has been around since the 60's, started off with the Fania family and has progressed with his own group. Not to much is heard of Roberto but when I heard this I was hooked. The emphasis on sound such as how they play long periods of percussion (trompeta,piano, y timbales)and then progress to sing is awesome. The words to the songs are also deep, you have to take it in. It makes me proud to have him as one of the greatest artist from Puerto Rico. I have two favorites Marejada Feliz and Lamento de Concepcion. Check it out, you will love it."
A very well-deserved tribute to a salsa legend.

"Roberto Roena was one of the Fania stable's most prolific bandleaders during the 1970s and this anniversary celebration concert is a tribute to him and his band's longevity. He reunites here with his two most famous singers (Piro Montilla and Sammy Gonzalez). This double CD is one you'll love- a "Salsa Dura" essential."
