“Acid” Ray Barretto Fania Records (1968) A classic. A well-know dance floor firestarter, but also a great cover worthy of another look. Features “Acid”, “Teacher of Love”, “Mercy, Mercy, Baby”, “Soul Drummers”, “A Deeper Shade of Soul” – the whole LP is an afro-latin, soul, funk and boogaloo fusion that makes you wanna move your feet. “Have you heard them cooking / The Soul Drummers / well they play so cool / Soul Drummers / so hard to resist / Soul Drummers / with the African twist.” A jewel in the amazing Fania catalog. Drop “Acid” at your next party and see what happens.
