They say a cat has nine lives, and Joe Bataan has lived a multitude of them in his long illustrious career. Though out of the scene for many years, Joe is back in great form now with this excellent new hard-core Latin Soul release from Vampisoul. Joining Joe for this special project is the Barcelona based Latin funk group Los Fulanos. With this album, Mr. New York revisits and revamps some of his most beloved anthems as well as some more obscure numbers. And with avid fans all over the world, this "Ordinary Guy" is poised to bring his extraordinary message of "Peace, Friendship, Solidarity" to a new generation for the first time, as well as once again to the old folks who never forgot him in the first place. Salsoul indeed!. (taken from the exensive liner notes by DJ Bongohead).
