Is this a comp?

Yes.  I'm usually not a listener who gravitates towards compilations -- but this one is AMAZING.  I like it better than any of Barretto's individual Fania records.  I suppose that's because it compiles the most jazz-oriented cuts off his records that are (for the most part) Salsa albums.

This Barretto compilation sort of reminds me of Eddie Palmieri's Exploration: Salsa-Jazz-Descarga, another compilation that focuses on the jammy/improvisational side of the Salsa-to-Jazz spectrum.  (Although I think Palmieri's Coco stuff is/was a bit more inherently "jazzy" than Barretto's Fania output.  Regardless, you get the idea; both compilations focus on the "Latin" and "Jazz" Venn diagram overlap.)

Disc 1

Disc 2.  I haven’t been doing a whole lot of listening for the last couple of weeks as I’m trying to recover from Covid and now a bad cold. Thank goodness for the vaccines.

John Mayall “Blues Breakers–with Eric Clapton” disc 2, which is the stereo mix and bonus tracks.

 

 

from this box set

Followed by

Miles Davis & John Coltrane – The Final Tour
The Bootleg Series, Vol. 6, disc 1

I’ve had these concerts on every issue official and unofficial I have seen them in, and this is clearly the very best sounding of the lot. And great music.
