Willie Colon Presents Ruben Blades: Putting your hand!
The combination of features that makes it special this album is based on a basic premise: both wanted to offer new things, break new ground, defining avant separated from the same music that sounded so tired.
wanted to be in a pod. Rubén
had previously tested with social themes because, above all, is a columnist and as you go and write a blog to tell the life from their own point of view, he wrote his songs where she showed and, of course, I wanted to sing. For the moment take this album, Blades was already recognized in the New York salsa scene for his songs, but still fairly anonymous to the general public. Had still some limitations when it comes to singing (and a timbre very much like Cheo Feliciano, which brought him no little criticism) and had failed to forge a unique style. To overcome this proved indispensable contribution of Columbus, the biggest selling salsa record in history. Not only because of his experience as a conductor, producer and arranger, but because, as a diamond cutter, he managed to polish every facet of this stone carved yet named Ruben Blades, to be getting a gem capable of making a style that still persists today. The cover , in fact, emphasizes this idea: Willie is listed as the trainer of a boxer ready to get their hands ... in the best sense of the term, of course.
The fight begins with Paul Village, a huge issue that the accent mark in one of the little holes that are most liked Ruben used to observe the world: social issues, the experience of everyday life, the neighborhood - as Latin American concept of lower class suburb, exclusion, and its protagonists. From humble people. Paul Village is the epitome of those who could not find success, even the material of which life always turned away. Of the ones attached to a hope that never materialized.
From poetry that all sorrow is capable of generating: Return
There are songs that show that the sauce is made only to spend soles or polish floors or settles buckles. That sauce also makes sense to be someone sitting on a couch. Not only because this letter withered any possibility of joy in the dance-especially me forces me to be quiet-but also because it has an amazing orchestration composed by the three trombones Leopoldo Pineda, Papo Vasquez and Lewis Kahn, low Salvador Cuevas Milton Cardona on congas, bongos Jose Mangual Jr, Nicky Marrero timbales and piano Sonny Bravo, Joe Torres settled the instrument in other subjects, in addition to the tuba-yes, a tuba - by Tom Malone, four of the great Yomo Toro and Rubén guitar, an instrument rarely seen in the expression. The arrangement of Pablo Pueblo was given by Luis Ortiz parrot. And it all ends so magnificent show.
Willie managed to bring their sound experiments to standardize the expression levels of the late 70's, but without resorting to mannerisms or rare sophistication.

From poetry that all sorrow is capable of generating: Return
a man of his silent work tired
passing not in a hurry, if it ever reaches shadow
awaits neighborhood always with the lantern in the corner,
with trash in front beyond and noise from the bar.
Pablo Pueblo reaches the dark hallway
and returns to see the walls with old papers
promising future in battle
politicking and his face is drawn the disappointment of waiting .
Pablo Pueblo, son of the street cry and
of poverty and hunger, the dead and grief
Pablo Pueblo, their food is hope
its way not in a hurry, your shadow never reached.
reaches the patio, thoughtful and downcast
silence with poor, with the cries from below
clothes on the balconies above the wind dries
hear thunder in the sky, rainy weather warning.
Enter the room and stares
his wife and children and wondered how long
Take your dreams threadbare patches in hopes
hunger makes a pillow and lies down sad soul.
