Pete "El Conde" Rodríguez - Sombras que Pasó (Visualizador Oficial)

Описание: El Conde was Puerto Rican singer, Pete “El Conde” Rodríguez's first solo album released in 1974 on Fania Records. Pete had already established himself as a top sonero (improvisational salsa singer) performing with Johnny Pacheco’s band. Standout tracks include “Babaila” which tells the tale of a young black boy, “Un Toque Pa’ Yambao” a musical tribute to an enslaved African who knew how to defend his own, and the saucy son montuno “El Conde Negro” is Pete’s calling card where he paves his musical way as he identifies himself as the Black Duke. “Babaila”, in particular, is sung with vocal and brass piercing passion. A hair-raising lament, “Babaila” tells the tale of a young child who’s separated from his family and sold at the slave market. Pete’s gypsy sounding chant, “Yo no quiero morir en cadenas” (I don’t want to die in chains) is a gut wrenchingly, tear welling song. The album is filled with upbeat salsa songs that are dancefloor classics, but the boleros “Fiesta en el cielo” and “Lo quiso Dios” showcase the visceral congo sounding, smooth flavor of Pete El Conde that’s in pitch and on the mark.
