Notes
The original 1973 US Release DID NOT have the Track Listing shown on the bottom left back cover. When Fania realized that the tracks could not be seen because they were all sealed in shrink wrap, they edited the back to include tracks, reprinted, and repressed.All Fania Originals were released with their full color picture sleeve of previous releases.
Track A3: Although instrumental Latin Jazz, this is Salsa.
Tracks B3: Abidyan, although a remake of the original, and more in Latin Jazz it is still Salsa.
Recorded at Good Vibrations Sound Studios, 1440 Broadway, New York City
