Julian Y Su Combo

"Noche de fiesta" (1975) was the first album that Julian Angulo and his combo recorded for Colombias INS label. With arrangements and piano by Alfredo Linares, its a thrilling LP sought after by collectors and DJs not only for its hard salsa and instrumental "descarga" tracks but also because of the funky dancefloor cuts Enyere Kumbara (covered by Quantic), INS-Rock and Estoy soda as well as the excellent original version of Las calenas son como las flores (made famous later the same year by The Latin Brothers).Angulo described his sound as "Afroantillano", combining Cuban, New York Latin and Puerto Rican elements with Colombias own tropical traditions. The combo featured the bandleaders funky, jazzy electric guitar, a hot rhythm section and the potent brass line-up of two saxophones and a trumpet.Presented in facsimile artwork and pressed on 180g vinyl.Part of a new Vampisoul reissue series of classic LPs from Colombias INS label.
