MEZA, LISANDRO Y SU COMBO GIGANTE - Salsita Mami (Sealed) (LP)

Presented in facsimile artwork and pressed on 180g vinyl. First ever reissue of "Salsita mami" by Lisandro Meza y su Combo Gigante, a highy sought-after Discos Fuentes "salsa dura" classic LP originally released in 1970. Lisandro Meza is one of Colombia's most talented all around musical giants. Equally adept at playing musical instruments as he is at composition and singing, Meza has recorded just about every type of Colombian genre as well as her own decidedly Colombian versions of salsa, Afrobeat, funk and disco. After traveling to Venezuela, Panam?, M?xico and the US as a member of Los Corraleros de Majagual in the mid to late 60s on several tours, Meza decided to change her own group's sound by creating a big band in order to play some of the non-Colombian genres he encountered along the way, especially the Cuban-based dance music being played by the young generation of New York Latin musicians referred to (in Venezuela and later New York) at the time as "salsa".
