Editor's Pick:
What a fitting tribute to master salsero Tito Gómez, who passed away, at the young age of 59, just two months after this sizzling performance was recorded. This show, one of salsa dura and old-school know-how, took place at the packed-to-capacity Café Teatro Bar in Calí, Colombia. Produced by Diego Galé (who should be given an award for single-handedly documenting the best Puerto Rican and Colombian salsa bands), this concert embodies the richest aspects of the music: swing, drive, rhythm and a healthy amount of inspired improvisation. Gómez had decades of salsa behind him: He sang with Sonora Ponceña, Grupo Niche, Ray Barretto (he does a killer “Guararé” here — it’s one of the DVDs many highlights), La Terrifica and others. The man was salsa history. Galé knew it, was obviously in awe of the man, and proved it with his wallet. This is a first-class production — multi-camera, perfectly edited and mixed. And the quality of the production was matched not only by Gómez, but by the band as well. Galé and crew, including pianist Alvaro Cabarcas “Pelusa,” bassist Sergio Munera, trombonist Morist Jimenez, Diego on congas and brother Jimmy on timbales are so practiced, so well-oiled — that the performance evolves into a thing of beauty, a work of art. In addition to the above mentioned “Guararé,” Gómez also performs the hits “Prende El Fogon,” “Un Caso Social,” “Invitación a un Sonero” and more. This DVD and CD package is a document of a salsa hero, and is a must-have.
Very Highly Recommended. (BP, 2007-07-18)
