about

The Ghetto Brothers’ “Power-Fuerza” (1972), one of the best Latin funk albums ever recorded…

Produced by boogaloo don Bobby Marin, this masterpiece is a sonic testament to the Ghetto Brothers' fusion of resilience, cultural richness, and musical innovation. Each track is a vibrant tapestry, weaving together the raw energy of the South Bronx streets and the soulful melodies born from the trio's Puerto Rican heritage.

Out of print for quite some time now, we are so happy to make this obscure Latin funk gem available again!

--------------------------------

El álbum de Ghetto Brothers “Power-Fuerza” (1972), es uno de los mejores discos de latín funk jamás grabados…

Producido por el jefazo del Boogaloo Bobby Marin, esta obra maestra es un testamento sonoro de la mezcla de resiliencia, riqueza cultural e innovación musical de los Ghetto Brothers. Cada corte es un tapiz vibrante, tejido a partir de la crudeza de las calles del Sur del Bronx y de melodías con alma nacidas de la herencia puertorriqueña de la banda.

Descatalogado durante bastante tiempo, nos alegra poder hacer que esta joya oscura de latin funk esté disponible de nuevo.
