Super heavy descarga session produced and directed by Al Santiago(who else?)which is essentially The Alegre All Stars working under the Salsa All Stars moniker for Mary Lou International's Salsa division after Santiago's Alegre label went bust.
Two monster long descarga jams on this one "Descarga De Cueros Y Vientos" and "Descarga En K" which are supplemented by 3 more straight ahead salsa cuts.
Killer!
