Editor's Pick:
In Spanish, the word reventar means to burst. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, to burst is “to make one’s way suddenly, dramatically, or by force.”
Hector Lavoe El Cantante de los Cantantes (The Singer of all Singers), literally “Revento “(bursted) onto the salsa scene in 1985 with the release of one of the best albums of his discography, which jump-started in 1967 with Willie Colon’s album “El Malo”.
“Revento” followed Vigilante, which was produced by Lavoe and Willie Colón in 1983. The production was feverishly popular among fans, who went crazy for hits like Juanito Alimaña and Triste Y Vacía.” Revento” was El Cantante response to salsa’s decline, which stemmed from the new presence of merengue and the romantic ballad.
...With the release of Revento, Héctor Lavoe took command of nightclubs throughout New York, Philadelphia, Boston, and New Jersey. And he continued to expand his territory in Peru, Panama, Venezuela, Colombia, Puerto Rico, Ecuador, and every other corner of the world. - Jaime Torres Torres (BP, 2011-07-14)
