Sonora Poncena - A Band And Its Music El Gigante Sureño (2019)

If you are already familiar with the magic of La Sonora Ponceña, then you know what this compilation has in store for you: over the span of 27 tracks, we have distilled the very essence of one of the jazziest, funkiest and most elegant orchestras ever to grace the landscape of Afro-Caribbean music. If, on the other hand, you are mostly unfamiliar with La Ponceña’s brand of Puerto Rican salsa, and decided to purchase this set to see what the band is all about, then you are in for an unforgettable treat – a life changing experience. Other salsa stars managed to capture the imagination of the mainstream: Tito Puente, Celia Cruz, Héctor Lavoe and Rubén Blades are the first that come to mind.
