about

First ever reissue of “Salsita mami” by Lisandro Meza y su Combo Gigante, a highy sought-after Discos Fuentes “salsa dura” classic LP originally released in 1970. Lisandro Meza is one of Colombia’s most talented all around musical giants. Equally adept at playing musical instruments as he is at composition and singing, Meza has recorded just about every type of Colombian genre as well as his own decidedly Colombian versions of salsa, Afrobeat, funk and disco.

After traveling to Venezuela, Panamá, México and the US as a member of Los Corraleros de Majagual in the mid to late 60s on several tours, Meza decided to change his own group’s sound by creating a big band in order to play some of the non-Colombian genres he encountered along the way, especially the Cuban-based dance music being played by the young generation of New York Latin musicians referred to (in Venezuela and later New York) at the time as “salsa”.

Primera reedición de “Salsita mami” de Lisandro Meza
y su Combo Gigante, un LP clásico de “salsa dura”
publicado originalmente por Discos Fuentes en 1970
e imposible de encontrar durante años.

Lisandro Meza es una de las grandes figuras musicales
colombianas. Igualmente dotado para tocar
instrumentos (acordeón, piano, guitarra, bajo, gaita)
como para cantar y componer, Meza ha grabado
cualquier tipo de género musical colombiano así como
sus propias interpretaciones de salsa, Afrobeat, funk y
disco.

Tras girar por Venezuela, Panamá, México y los Estados
Unidos formando parte de Los Corraleros de Majagual
a mediados de los 60, Meza decidió cambiar el sonido
de su propio grupo y crear una gran banda para tocar
algunos de los géneros no colombianos que había
descubierto, especialmente la música de baile de origen
cubano interpretada por jóvenes músicos de Nueva York
denominada por aquel entonces (en Venezuela y más
tarde Nueva York) “salsa”.
