No one can argue the fact that Celia Cruz enjoyed

No one can argue the fact that Celia Cruz enjoyed a long and illustrious career as salsa music's premier 'guarachera'. A career that began in Cuba where she gained national notoriety while singing for the long-standing Sonora Matancera orchestra and continued as a revered vocalist in her own right. She recorded several albums for the Seeco label, among other record companies, before she was re-introduced to the Tico label to record a series of albums with the world-renowned Tito Puente orchestra.

This month we celebrate the 50th anniversary of th

This month we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the classic film and score Shaft. The successful 2-LP soundtrack composed by the legendary Stax Records artist Isaac Hayes was his fourth consecutive platinum LP, and the title track “Theme from Shaft” earned him an Oscar Award for Best Original Song.

In honor of the significant anniversary, we want to share a fun Fania fact. In 1971, Latin soul artist Joe Bataan recorded a cover of “Theme from Shaft” titled “Shaft,” adding it as the closing track on his Saint Latin’s Day Massacre album, released that year on Fania Records. Joe and the chorus shine throughout this number, which received international acclaim. Celebrate this iconic song and enjoy Bataan’s Latin soul version wherever you stream or download music: https://found.ee/shaft-joe-bataan

Arguably the finest album release by the Fania mus

Arguably the finest album release by the Fania musical empire, Siembra has outsold all other Salsa albums in its time with millions of copies sold world-wide. The perfect combination of Ruben Blades’ writing and singing along with the exciting sounds created by Willie Colon and his talented musicians is nothing short of compelling. These two artists have combined their talents on four albums released by Fania; each with strong social messaging and exciting arrangements. But Siembra tells it best. "Siembra" is a brilliant collaboration by the well-respected trombonist, composer and bandleader, Willie Colon, and the popular Panamanian vocalist/composer/movie star, Ruben Blades.
