Lo Mejor de Joe Cuba – Joe Cuba, 1971

🎷🎺🥁🇵🇷💃 – Latin stopover in Puerto Rico with boogaloo pioneer Gilberto Calderon aka Joe Cuba. He remains one of the genre’s founders, blending the Cuban son with Western pop. A look back at his hits with this 1971 compilation including « Bang Bang, » « Hey Joe Hey Joe » and « T.C.O.B. » His song « El Pito (I’ll Never Go Back to Georgia) » was written after getting booed at a show in that state, vowing never to return.
