Our Thing: The Birth of Salsa in Nueva York (hosted by Rosie Perez)
from La Brega: Campeones
The 1960s brings social and political change to the world and to New York City, where a young Johnny Pacheco keeps people dancing with his orchestra and charanga music. The Dominican musician is also going through a divorce and his lawyer, Jerry Masucci, happens to be a fan of Johnny’s music. The two form a music partnership that will forever change music. They call their music label Fania Records. Listen to Our Thing: The Birth of Salsa in Nueva York out now wherever you listen to podcasts.Want to support our independent journalism?
