Live Salsa Dura with High Quality Sound.
Quimbara is a beautiful Guaguancó that was first interpreted in 1974 by the Queen of Salsa Celia Cruz (* 21.10.1925; † 16.07.2003) and Johnny Pacheco.
The young author of the song is Junior Cepeda who was tragically killed with three bullets by a jealous girlfriend in the Bronx just 2 days before the release of the LP with Quimbara.
He passed away on July 29, 1974.
This video is a live-recording of the salsa orchestra CHACÁN.
CHACÁN pays tribute to the salsa pioneers in the eras between the 1950s and the 1980s, interpreting with passion, respect and gratitude a selection of the finest salsa classics and hidden gems.
The montunos are delivered by a Fender Telecaster with a vintage Fender ‘65 Deluxe Reverb Cabinet Sound that give a nostalgic flavor reminiscent of the old school salsa groups such as La Playa Sextet or Randy Carlos.
