Willie Colon Presents Ruben Blades – Metiendo Mano!
In the mid-80s, we all went mad for 'latin' music, after being exposed to the cross-cultural mix of sounds from across Latin America that had been introduced to us by Gilles Peterson, Chris Bangs etc in the upstairs or back rooms of rare groove clubs.
I reckon I picked this European issue (on Caliente!, a Charly subsidiary) at Camden Market around 1986/87. I know it would have been around that time, because it suffers from a bit of mould on the playing surface from my freezing and damp Dagenham flat (no insulation, draughty leaded windows, and a single bar electric heater that you couldn't afford to use.)
I love this LP and I must give it a good clean one day.
