🇩🇴🫡💪✊️Johnny Pacheco✨️ was the Dominican divine force to turn Cuban popular music into a universal genre on the New York scene, giving a commercial name to a synthesis of several Cuban musical genres. In that society, Jerry Masucci was the hired man and Johnny Pacheco was the great musical maestro in charge of everything that corresponded to productions, arrangements, musical recordings and new talents. The great Dominican0 One of his greatest contributions was promoting the term “salsa” for the genre that emerged from this record label, a mix of Cuban 🇨🇺 rhythms such as mambo, guaracha, charanga, son muntuno and chachachá, 🇵🇷Puertoricobomba plena and the beautiful Merengue 🇩🇴Dominican of Pacheco.

Jerry was the money man that had the vision and Pacheco was the hired man in charge of hiring the best musicians and singers he could find. He created a dream team of artists, most of them Puerto Rican. The music was already popular in Cuba, NY and Puerto Rico, but with the team of the great musicians and singers already established, it was taken to the next level. If it wasnt for this dream team, Masuchi, Pacheco or Fania would have never been known or be another rfailed record label. The artists realized Massucci and Pacheco were stealing money from them and the decline of Fania started.

PACHECO formed his own band, PACHECO Y Su Charanga, in 1960. Their first promotional single "El güiro de Macorina"/"Óyeme mulata", received much airplay in New York from DJ Rafael Font. Al Santiago, owner of Alegre Records, decided to offer Pacheco and his band a record deal. Their debut album PACHECO Y Su Charanga Vol. 1 sold 100,000 copies within the first year of its release.PACHECO's success led to a new dance fad, the pachanga (combination of "PACHECO" and "charanga"). The music for the pachanga was heavily influenced by the uptempo merengue and cha-cha-cha hybrid style originated by Eduardo Davidson in 1959; José Fajardo's charanga popularized this style in Cuba.

LOL, what this has to do with anything? Lucky for him he learned from Tito Rodriguez and had the massive talent of Puerto Rican singers, musicians and song writers to make Fania what it was.

If you think Merengue influencedCharanga then you know nothing about music. In fact it might have more Haitian/French influence than anything else but it was created in Cuba. Stop making shit up. 😂

In the early 1960s, Johnny Pacheco was at the top of Cuban-DOMINICAN-based Latin music. Born in the Dominican Republic and raised in New York, Pacheco was a Juilliard-trained multi-instrumentalist who found success playing and recording with his Pacheco and Su Charanga orchestra. At the scene, he met Italian-American policeman-turned-attorney Jerry Masucci, a passionate fan of the Latin sound from New York. When Pacheco's marriage fell apart in 1962, he turned to Masucci to handle the divorce. As one union dissolved, another was born: a Latin music label called Fania Records. The two put $ 5,000 into their company and initially sold albums from their car trunks in Spanish Harlem. The label, in no time, established the musical genre that would become known as salsa, a collision of the traditional Cuban / Dominican SON and pan-Latin rhythms, such as African American jazz and funk.

💯📖🎼🎤🎶👂💖✊💪✌😇🗽🐀🐅🇩🇴 THE GREAT DOMINICAN MUSICIAN MASTER FOREVER .. FATHER of SALSA MUSIC. JOHNNY PACHECO he left an incomparable legacy ...

[@sreyesss2107]

Ok...... yeah he’s a great salsa singer... but be honest Hector Lavoe 🇵🇷is the real father of salsa. He’s even considered to be the best and most important singer in salsa history🔥🇵🇷 (do ur research)

[@neldadon]

@@sreyesss2107 👈😂silly La vida de JOHNNY PACHECO contaba una típica historia latina de Nueva York: los orígenes de la música SALSA Era un inmigrante DOMINICANO que tocaba música CUBANA para una audiencia mayoritariamente puertorriqueña. Como muchos empresarios neoyorquinos que se autodenominan, sabía que tenía que lanzarse a la calle con su producto y conocer a sus clientes cara a cara, conduciendo por los barrios en NEW YORK vendiendo discos desde el maletero de un viejo Mercedes-Benz. .

[@neldadon]

@@sreyesss2107 DOMINICAN johnny pacheco is not only a singer he's the creator, producer , writer, arranger , band leader , matser percussionist , flute , saxophone , architecture of SALSA music. hector came after begging for a opportunity to singer .hector only wanted to sing for PACHECO's FANIA FACT.💯☝✊💪✌🗽

[@sreyesss2107]

@@neldadon lol😂el son de la salsa originó de CUBA🇨🇺 . Los origines no son de ningún inmigrante Dominicano. Estudia. De seguro eso es un mito inventado. Cuba es la cuna de la salsa y PR lo distribuyó.

[@sreyesss2107]

@@neldadon he can be all that and more y pudo estar antes de Héctor. BUT he’s still NOT considered “the best or the most important” salsa singer in history. AND THATS THE REAL FACT. (Again do your research y no digas sanganeses) Hector Lavoe es un artista conocido mundial. Johnny Pacheco se pegó más en RD y NY.... fuera de ahí NADIE lo conoce🤷🏻‍♂️😂si no me crees Pregúntale a un mexicano, venezolano o un salvadoreño pa que veas😂😂😂
