Chamaco Ramirez - Alive And Kicking (Remastered 2024) (2024) [Hi-Res]

A pretty sweet late 70s salsa set from Chamaco Ramirez -- a wonderful singer best remembered for his work in the 60s & 70s for bandleader Tommy Olivencia -- and this is the one-and-only solo album to Chamaco's name! Alive & Kicking was released in 1979, and in a bit of sad irony, came out just a few years before Ramirez was killed, but sad history aside, it's a nice little record! Arrangements are by Javier Vazquez -- and the group features lots of strong trumpet from Chocolate Armanteros, and tenor from Mario Rivera. Titles include "San Agustin", "Rumba Moderna", "Cuando Manda El Corazon", "Kikiriki", "Respetala", "No Es Vacilon", "Fania" and more.
