Latin Brothers, The
El Picotero
This 1974 debut album by heavy-duty trombone-centric Colombian salsa group The Latin Brothers remains a favorite the world over to this day. Featuring the soaring vocals of Piper Pimienta and backing of Fruko with members of his band Los Tesos, The Latin Brothers would inspire future Colombian salsa orchestras like Grupo Niche as well as helping establish Medelln as a center of salsa almost as famous as Cali. Filled with lesser-known dance floor classics, this remastered edition also contains the non-LP bonus track Echa pa lante camara. 180g vinyl
