Coooomo??? Palmieri en Boogaloo???
When Eddie's La Perfecta put out a boogaloo record everybody thought they had just fallen prey to the latest fad. How wrong!!! This is the best, baddest and hardest swinging boogaloo record that you can put your hands on! And is much more than that... With the addition of Chocolate Armenteros on trumpet, Israel Lopez "Cachao" on bass and Cheo Feliciano singing "Ay que Rico" and "Busca lo tuyo" La Perfecta expands and blows everyone away! This is another of Eddie's classics. "Cinturita" is in my opinion the best boogaloo ever recorded. Listen to it and you'll agree with me. Add to that Arsenio Rodriguez' "Si las nenas me dejan" with Barry Rogers playing the tres and with Chocolate's amazing trumpet and you get the perfect blend of the new and the traditional.

Palmieri Boogaloo!!!
Great album from the days of good salsa music. Here you have Cheo Feliciano (of Joe Cuba Sexttet fame) and Ismael Quintana sharing the vocal duties, while Eddie & Co. blow the house down.

A couple of boogaloos (Ay Que Rico, Cinturita, Palo de Mango), with some guaguanco (Busca Lo Tuyo and Yo No Engaño A Las Nenas) and a throw-away twist (African Twist).

This one also has a really cool cover. Get it for the boogaloo and guaguanco, skip the twist. You will really dig it!!

African Twist
Champagne es sin duda una rareza dentro del largo listado de albumes de Palmieri. Mostrando una versatilidad incomparable se deja tentar por el ritmo que por el momento era el boom... el boogaloo. Aca en Colombia se goza CINTURITA subiendo el pitch del tiempo de la cancion, exigiendo aun más al bailador. Que sabrosura!!!
CD recomendadísimo
