专辑介绍

by Alex Henderson

The late 1970s found Ray Barretto recording some instrumental pop-jazz albums for Atlantic while providing vocal-oriented salsa for Fania, which was held in extremely high regard by salseros (deservedly so) and has been exalted as the Motown of Afro-Cuban music. One of the excellent salsa LPs that Barretto recorded for Fania, 1977's Energy to Burn, finds the percussionist/producer featuring three male vocalists: Ruben Blades, Adalberto Santiago, and Tito Allen. Between the three, Santiago is featured the most prominently -- Blades is only heard on the haunting opener &Canto Abacua,& while Allen has memorable spots on &El Hijo de Obatala& and &Llanto de Cocodrillo.& But it is Santiago who provides the emotional vocals on the LP's other five tracks, which range from Barretto's own &Te Traigo Mi Son& to the Arsenio Rodriguez classic &Bruco Manigua.& Energy to Burn is among the Fania releases that Barretto can easily be proud of.
