By 1987 the Fania era was winding down — and Ray Barretto gave it one of its most airtight finishes. Aquí Se Puede is considered by many the last of his great old-school salsa records: a tight típico groove anchored by bassist Johnny Torres, Jimmy Bosch on trombone, Hector “Bomberito” Zarzuela on trumpet, and Jimmy Delgado on timbales. Produced by Barretto himself at La Tierra Sound Studios, NYC. Ray Saba on lead vocals for his final outing — he was let go before the next record. “No Me Paren La Salsa” closes it out.
