BOBBY VALENTIN

🎞️ Foto / Photo 1 (izq. a der. / L–R): Carlos "El Grande" Ferrer & Bobby Valentín. Bronx NY. 08/09/1987.

Ese día en el Bronx, cuando me encontré con Bobby Valentín, no necesitamos muchas palabras. Ya nos conocíamos bien, desde los tiempos de La Salsa Mayor. Cuando grabamos el album "De Frente y Luchando" en su estudio en Puerto Rico. Él había arreglado partes del disco. Había estado en los ensayos, observando, escuchando. Eso lo dice todo de Bobby— no es solo El Rey del Bajo, es un hombre que se preocupa de verdad por la música.

Años después, ahí estábamos otra vez, en el Bronx, con la misma energía de siempre. El tiempo pasa, pero el respeto no se va.

That day in the Bronx, running into Bobby Valentín, we didn't need many words. We already knew each other well , going back to the La Salsa Mayor days when we recorded the album "De Frente y Luchando" at his studio in Puerto Rico. He had arranged parts of the record. He had been there at the rehearsals, watching, listening. That says everything about Bobby: he isn't just El Rey del Bajo— he is a man who truly cares about the music.

Years later, there we were again, in the Bronx, same energy as always. Time passes, but respect doesn't.

Bobby Valentin, Mind of a Master

One of the most iconic images of the Tropical/Salsa genre has been the fiery fingers of BOBBY VALENTIN attacking the fretboard of his electric bass, whether behind the mincing and grinding Tito Rod…

I was listening to this song in the car recently, and it occurred to me that the first section sounded a lot like something the Skatalites might have recorded. Then the boogaloo section kicks in. Kinda cool.
