"The Hustler...... Oh yea! hehe what a great song featuring Willie Colon with a trombone solo followed by a timbales solo.Great opening song for the album,that was released a year after his previous album,"El Malo (1968-69)."Don't let the date do all the talking.This one definitely fits a classic Latin-Jazz/Salsa library.With two slow dance hits Que Lio and Havana,Hector Lavoe really beautifies the two pieces,especially Havana.Surprisingly since I've been listening to this album for 4 weeks now I would say Havana is one of Hector's golden songs he ever sang.The backround vocals are excellent and the sound quality given off in this record is great!If you love Willie Colon's hardcore style of his trombone and music,you'll definitely love this album! Its a great classic,Im so glad i have it to enjoy!"
