Justo Betancourt - Tú Verás Qué Rico Es (Visualizador Oficial)

1982’s Leguleya No was Cuban singer and bandleader Justo Betancourt’s final solo project for Fania, recorded in New York. The set opens with “De Madrugada”, an awesome interpretation of “Son De La Madrugada” written by Adalberto Alvarez, then leader of Cuba’s exciting Son 14. During the song, Justo identifies the flautist as Nestor Torres. “Muellero” begins at a medium pace, then really takes-off with quick-fire flute phrases flying above the horns. Another mover, “Aquí Si Hay Hispanos,” features a soaring flute solo. A highlight of the outstanding “Tu Veras Que Rico Es” is a solo from Cuban pianist Alfredo Rodríguez. For the percussion-heavy title track, Justo plays claves (twin wooden strikers), the small quinto drum and campana (cowbell), and the band is augmented by a group of tambores, sacred batá drum and chekere (rattle) players including Daniel Ponce, who had arrived from his native Cuba in 1980. Justo changes the mood with “Sin Motivo” and “Ven Pronto”, two finely executed boleros.
