Forty years ago, while still enjoying the success of his previous album “Indestructible<\/em>“, Ray Barretto<\/a> faced another challenge for his next album “Barretto<\/em>” which became a turning point on the careers of several Salsa artists.<\/p>\n The self-titled album “Barretto<\/em>” was the follow-up album to what I consider a Salsa Hall of Fame album “Indestructible<\/em>“. After many years of a stable band nucleus, which included 7 albums with singer Adalberto Santiago, “Indestructible” was the first album after the band mutiny of Santiago and 4 other members, who left in 1973 to form the Tipica 73.<\/p>\n
