{"product_id":"fruko-power-vol-1","title":"Fruko Power Vol 1","description":"\u003cp\u003eRarities and Deep Album Cuts 1970-1974. Twenty rarities and deep cuts from the early years of Fruko y Sus Tesos on legendary label Discos Fuentes. A collection\nof powerful Colombian salsa dura for the serious collector, DJ and dancer, but also enjoyable for those just discovering Fruko for the first time. 2LP including an\ninsert with photos and liner notes by DJ Bongohead (of Peace and Rhythm). The two-volume collection \u003ci\u003eFruko Power \u003c\/i\u003eis not an homage, career overview,\ngreatest hits or ‘best of’ collection showcasing the evolution of Fruko (Julio Ernesto Estrada Rincón), the Renaissance Man of Colombian tropical music. Instead,\nthis compilation series shines a light on a lesser-known side of the bassist and band leader’s work during the early 1970s with Fruko y Sus Tesos, reissuing in\nphysical form many of his rare or hard to find salsa 45s as well as a few deep album cuts from the first half decade of his career, assembled in chronological order.\nThere are interesting cover versions as well as originals, some of which never appeared on an LP. All of Fruko’s classic vocalists are represented, from early\ncollaborators Humberto “Huango” Muriel and Edulfamid “Píper Pimienta” Díaz to golden-era stars Joe Arroyo and Wilson “Saoko” Manyoma. \u003ci\u003eFruko Power \u003c\/i\u003eis\nless for the newcomer and more for the serious salsa collector, DJ and dancer who may have a few of the maestro’s albums or hits but wants to dig deeper and\nhave all these obscure rarities in one place. However, it also serves as an excellent compendium of powerful Latin dance tracks by Fruko y Sus Tesos that have\nstood the test of time, so even those who do not know much of his work will be sure to feel the power of Fruko.\n\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vampisoul","offers":[{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":50427111178571,"sku":"2012096","price":42.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/7OC-R6kw_73eee1ad_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726821803","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/products\/fruko-power-vol-1","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
