*These are great Mambo tracks. Vocals here are by none other than Mon Rivera. Moncho Lena really cooks here on timbales – leading a tight little combo that easily rivaled Puente during this great era. There's a jazzy flourish to most numbers here – as the group is driven by Moncho's rhythms, then opens up on trumpet and piano! Hector Rivera handles the keys, with a bold energy that's mighty nice – and Mon Rivera sings on a good deal of numbers too. Titles include "Alo Quien Nama", "Polin Cha", "Sabrosura", "Quiereme Mi Cielo", "Carbon De Palito", "Juana Maria", and "Canallon".
