Notes: Personnel: Rub�n Blades (vocals, acoustic guitar, maracas, percussion); Milton Cardona (quinto, claves, tumba); Harold Hohon's String Ensemble (strings); Willie Col�n (bass trumpet); Leopoldo Pineda, Jose Rodriquez, Lewis Kahn, Renaldo Jorge (trombone); Jose Torres (piano); Sal Cuevas (bass guitar); Jose Mangual Jr. (bongos); Johnny Andrews (timbales). Additional personnel: Anoland Diaz (guitar). This release was a transition between Blades's post-Willie Colon sound and the '80s Seis del Solar. The salsa sounds predominate much of the time, and there's a Cuban classic in among his own compositions. But keyboards and vibes (presumably from Louie Ramirez, who did some of the arranging) point to a new dispensation in the offing, with their (here, at least, very successful) fusion edge. ~ John Storm Roberts
Rolling Stone (p.75) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[S]tring-swept and brooding, Blades' tunes are more complex than standard Fania fare."
