Willie Colon - La Gran Fuga #williecolon

La Gran Fuga (The Big Break) is the Gold-certified sixth collaboration between the legendary duo of trombonist, composer and musical director Willie Colón and famed singer Héctor Lavoe, released in 1970. The songs reflect the duo’s views on life’s reckless joys and profound tragedies, like the nostalgic remembrance of Lavoe’s grandmother’s hilarious sayings on “Abuelita” and the swinging “Barrunto” which describes the sadness of heartbreak. Craft Latino is reissuing the digital album, recently remastered in 2024, and making it available in standard digital audio formats on 4/25. The remastered hi-res digital album and vinyl were reissued in 2024. #williecolon #hectorlavoe #fania #faniarecords #salsa #salsalovers
