Known across the salsa world as "El Niño Bonito de la Salsa," Ismael Miranda made his name as one of Fania's great soneros — but this record shows a different side of him. Éxitos de los 50 is a full album of bolero standards, letting him fuse the romantic tradition he grew up on with the salsa voice he built his career around. "Copas y Amigos" is the standout here, and the cover art alone is worth the shelf space.
