"Sock It To Me Latino!" is a landmark album by Puerto Rican percussionist Francisco "Kako" Bastar and his band Kako y Su Orquesta, released in 1968 on Musicor Records. The record vividly captures the golden era of the New York Latin scene, combining classic mambo, guajira, bomba, and boogaloo.
The album serves as the perfect bridge between the mambo craze of the 1950s and the explosive development of New York salsa in the 1970s (the Fania Records era).
