Masters at work .....

This is a Puerto Rican product .... like it quiete a bit ....

Azuquita Y Su Melao "Amor Genuino" (Vaya Records) 1979 .... excellent Johnny Pacheco production ....

Recorded 3 decades ago these performances really stood the test of time .....

Great Cover Versions Part 16 .... : O.V. Wright "Afflicted" (Back Beat) 1970 .... Charles Brimmer "Afflicted" (Hep' Me Records) 1970 .... With admirable boldness Charles Brimmer tackles the song made immortal by O.V. Wright the very same year .... although a hopeless undertaking his effort results in a great cover version ....

Outstanding release from 1978 ....

😇🤓 ....

As good as it gets ....

Really appreciate your feedback and thoughts .... I was an avid 45's collector and this track (hidden as B-Side) was rather hard to find ....

O.V. Wright "The Hurt Is Real" (Back Beat) 1969 .... when the horns finally kick in .... this is Deep Soul heaven ....

It was about time ....

Liza Minelli "Don`t Drop Bombs" (Epic) 1989 ..... original photography :

Before .... : João Gilberto "João Voz E Violão" (Verve Records) 2000 ....

Still in the mood for these fabulous Art Famer recordigs from the mid70`s ....

Roberto Torres "Camina Y Ven Pa' La Loma" (SAR Records) 1981 .... Roberto Torres and Charlie Rodriguez in Salsa wonderland ....

Papaito "En Mi Triste Agonia" (SAR Records) 1979 .... Papaito in 🥳top Form🥳 and Victor "Chino" Trias on tres simply masterful .... so nothing new more or less 👹 ....

Great Cover Versions Part 15 .... : Maceo Parker "Drowning In A Sea Of Love" (People) 1974 .... alternate view on this Gamble/Huff song first recorded by Joe Simon .....

Alicia de Larrocha plays Albeniz "live" in 1980 .... unsurprisingly wonderful ....

Sometimes i wish back the era before amassed 3pointer attempts changed the game completely ....

R.I.P ....

Indeed ....

Wonderful ....

And "Yesterday's Thoughts" (East Wind) from the same recording sessions in July 1975 ....
