      Based in New York and Colombia, Alfredo worked with some of the greats in Latin music including Eddie Palmieri, Willie Colon and Roberto Roena, alongside disco and soul icons like Sylvester and Aquarian Dream. His debut album, Alfredo, is sublime and comprises two distinct halves. The A-side is a fine outing of Latin dancefloor workouts, with Alfredo innovatively incorporating the violin as a key element of his songwriting. Take to 'Toca Alfredo Toca' or 'Charangueando' to hear Alfredo's violin solos placed centre stage, a unique dimension to Latin music which he helped to pioneer at the time.

      Side two though is where things get interesting and unexpected. 'Hot To Trot' is a string-laden, Latin groover with a heavy dose of disco- funk and bubbling Brazilian percussion. It is sheer genius and still ignites a dancefloor to this day. The track became a favourite with the iconic New York DJ Larry Levan and was spun in one of the ground zero blueprints of modern clubbing, the Paradise Garage. This tune has been a mainstay amongst DJs ever since its release, has featured on compilations by Louie Vega, Dave Lee and Danny Krivit over the years and is a record that never leaves our bag. Other highlights include the cosmic, layered string, Latin jazz version of 'My Favourite Things' that opens into a psychedelic percussive jam and the mesmerising 'Que Rico Bailo Yo'. Also be sure to check the epic closer 'Canto Del Corazon', which fuses avant-garde elements into a bass-gliding funk before morphing into a brilliant Latin final section.

      This is a true masterpiece from the trailblazing "El violin de la salsa" and one that deserves a place in every collection
