Vinyl LP pressing. On August 26, 1971, the Fania All Stars electrified the Cheetah Club stage in New York, causing a salsa-induced delirium that not only defined their career but the salsa genre. This live recording captures that unforgettable performance, featuring the introductory track "Estrellas de Fania" and "Ponte Duro" where we can distinctly hear Johnny Pacheco introducing the roster of salsa legends.

"On Thursday, Aug. 26, 1971, young Latinos from all parts of New York gathered at Cheetah to witness history in the making. On this night, the Fania All-Stars were being filmed and recorded "live" for all the world to see and hear the best Latin music has to offer. So listen and relive the excitement of that night, for the sounds you will hear are the sounds of "El Corazon Latino"...
PS: You must see the movie "Our Latin Thing" (Nuestra Cosa). The movie is a musical, cultural view of the Latin lifestyle in New York City. Que Viva La Musica!" - Izzy Sanabria
